Ingredients
For the Cake:
28 OREO cookies (with filling)
1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions
-
Prepare the Oven and Pan:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a round or square cake pan with cooking spray. -
Make the Cake Batter:
Add 28 OREO cookies (with filling) to a blender or food processor and pulse until finely crushed. In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with 1 teaspoon of baking powder and 1 cup of milk. Whisk until the batter is smooth. -
Bake the Cake:
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely in the pan. -
Optional Homemade Ganache (for extra indulgence):
-
Heat the Cream: In a small saucepan, warm ½ cup light cream over low heat until it just begins to simmer (don’t let it boil).
-
Melt the Chocolate: Remove from heat, then add 1 ⅓ cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Stir until smooth. Add extra chocolate chips for a thicker ganache.

Decorate the Cake:
Once the cake has cooled, pour the ganache over the top, letting it drip down the sides. Let the ganache set before slicing and serving.
Notes
Ganache Option: The ganache is optional but makes the cake even richer and more indulgent.
Customizing: Add crushed Oreos or chocolate chips to the batter for extra texture and flavor.
Storage: Keep the cake at room temperature for up to 2-3 days. The ganache may soften, so store in a cool place.
