Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sleeve Oreo cookies (16 cookies, cream removed)
- 1/2 cup butter (room temperature)
- 1/2 cup oil
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs (room temperature)
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups cake flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 1/3 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup unsalted butter (for frosting)
- 3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 4 tablespoons whole milk
- 2–3 tablespoons espresso powder (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F. Grease and flour three 6-inch or two larger (8 or 9-inch) cake pans.
- Crush the Oreo cookie parts using a rolling pin in a plastic bag until small pieces form.
- In a bowl with a stand mixer, beat the softened butter and oil together for about three minutes until well blended.
- Gradually add sugar and continue beating until light and fluffy, around three minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time along with vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition.
- In another bowl, sift together cake flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix these into the wet ingredients alternately with buttermilk in four batches.
- Gently fold in crushed Oreos and divide the batter evenly among prepared pans. Bake for about thirty minutes or until lightly golden brown.
- For frosting, beat together unsalted butter, powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, salt, and espresso powder until fluffy. Fold in more crushed Oreos.
- Once cakes are cool, assemble them by layering with frosting between each layer and on top.
