Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 5 large eggs
- 3/4 cup sugar (divided)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup Oreo crumbs (about 12 Oreos, filling intact)
- 20–24 Oreo cookies
- 20–24 chocolate chip cookies
- 12 oz evaporated milk
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup half & half (or 1/4 cup whole milk + 1/4 cup whipping cream)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional: Oreo Thins or regular Oreos for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a rectangular baking dish.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
- Beat the eggs and the larger portion of sugar (3/4 cup) until thick and pale.
- Gently fold in the dry ingredients, vanilla extract, and whole milk until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared dish and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let it cool completely.
- Combine evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, half & half, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth.
- Poke holes in the cooled cake using a skewer or fork. Slowly pour the milk mixture over the cake, ensuring even absorption. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Whip heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl until soft peaks form.
- Spread the whipped cream over the soaked cake and top with Oreo and chocolate chip cookies. Finish with additional Oreo Thins if desired.
Notes
For an intense Oreo flavor, mix in additional Oreo crumbs into the whipped cream layer. Ensure thorough soaking for a moist cake.
