Ingredients:
1 box Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge Cake Mix
1 (3.9 oz.) package Jell-O Instant Chocolate Fudge Pudding Mix (dry)
4 large eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 cup vegetable oil
½ cup whole milk, divided
1 tablespoon vanilla
¼ teaspoon salt
1 (3.9 oz.) package Jell-O Oreo Instant Pudding Mix
2 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy cream
⅓ cup Jell-O Oreo Instant Pudding Mix (dry)
½ cup powdered sugar
1 cup Oreos, crushed
Instructions:
For a delightful Oreo Poke Cake, start by preheating your oven to 350°F and greasing a 9×13-inch baking pan. In a large bowl or stand mixer, blend together the chocolate cake mix, chocolate pudding mix, eggs, sour cream, vegetable oil, ½ cup milk, salt, and vanilla until well combined. Pour this batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once baked, let the cake cool completely before poking holes all over the surface with a wooden spoon handle. For the filling, mix the Oreo pudding mix with 2 cups of cold milk until smooth, then spread this mixture evenly over the cooled cake. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for an hour. To prepare the frosting, whip together the heavy cream, dry Oreo pudding mix, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Spread the frosting over the chilled cake and top with crushed Oreos for a perfect finishing touch.
