Chocolate Cake with No bake Oreo Filling


We moved recently, and as I packed up my kitchen, my husband was amazed at the number of cake pans I own.   He tried to get me to purge at least half of them, and I naturally resisted!   This Baker's Advantage Fillables pan was one of my newer acquisitions, and I had lots of ideas of how I wanted to use it.

With Valentine's Day coming up, I gravitated towards chocolate. I had 2 chocolate fudge cake mixes and a can of milk chocolate frosting in the pantry.  If you aren't a fan, you can definitely make both from scratch.   I was a little worried about stickage, so I used a light coating of cooking spray on the pans.  The cakes popped right out.


That left those fantastic pockets to fill.   My son loves Oreos, and my husband loves cheesecake, so I combined a few recipes and ended up with a no bake filling that was easy to pipe through a pastry bag.     

Very happy with the end result, and I'm looking forward to trying many more combinations.  My son also wondered how it would turn out if you made 2 of the pocket layers.   Twice as much filling!


There are lots of ways to your Valentine's heart- breakfast, dinner, cocktails or dessert.   Be sure to check out the collection of  #ValentinesDayFood recipes from some amazing bloggers at the end of this post, thank you to Family Around the Table for hosting!



Chocolate Cake with No Bake Oreo Filling

Author:

ingredients:

  • 2 boxes chocolate cake mix ( I used Chocolate fudge)- or your favorite from scratch chocolate cake
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2t vanilla
  • For No Bake Filling
  • 3/4c heavy cream
  • 4oz cream cheese (softened)
  • Heaping 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 6 crushed Oreos
  • 1 can Milk Chocolate frosting
  • Crushed Oreos for garnish

instructions:

  1. Prepare cake according to package directions. Spray pans with nonstick cooking spray, and divide batter between the pans. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in pans 10 minutes, invert onto racks to cool completely.
  2. Beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Freezing your mixing bowl and beater will help this happen faster. In another bowl, mix together cream cheese and powdered sugar until there are no lumps. Fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Stir in oreos. Refrigerate until needed.
  3. To assemble cake- place layer with pockets on your serving dish. Use a pastry bag to pipe Oreo filling into pockets. Heat icing in microwave in 30 second intervals until pourable. Pour 1/3 over layer, spreading to the edges but not flowing over.
  4. Add top layer. Pour remaining frosting over the top, using a spatula to spread it to flow over the sides. Sprinkle with additional crushed oreos, if desired. Slice and enjoy. Store in refrigerator.

I googled Sanders Bumpy Cake and it looks awesome :)
Jolene said…
I've got my eye on a few of the other styles too :) The new house has way more storage, haha.
What a fun treat, not only for Valentine's Day, but a birthday or anniversary. I love you can use a cake mix. Such a time saver!

Oh man, look at that drip! This cake looks incredibly decadent, perfect for Valentines Day!
Amy said…
Yum! That looks decadent!
Jolene said…
Me too! It helps me justify my cake mix buying addiction :)

It was like little chocolate waterfalls! And if you don't like a naked edges cake you definitely could pour and spread for totally glazed sides.
Shelby said…
Oh man, I HAVE to make this cake! My friend just bought me the same cake pan you used to make this and she would love this recipe. Can't wait!
Jolene said…
It's such a fun pan! I'm mulling a spice cake, apple pie filling combination, as well as a yellow cake/lemon filling. Of course, there's Boston Cream Pie too! Good thing my family likes cake :)

This cake is beautiful! What a chocolate lover's dream. Like you, I've been using a little cooking spray on the pans too, just to be safe. They are really fun to use!

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites

I'm a huge fan of the Dunkin Donuts Power Breakfast sandwich, so when I started seeing ads for the new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites I stopped in and gave them a try.  They were delicious, but of course, I knew I could make them at home.  I started with the whites of six eggs. You can use pasturized whites if you don't want to do the whole separating, finding a use for the yolks thing.  I beat them up with some salt and pepper. Next up, the tomato and spinach.  I used grape tomatoes, seeded them and then chopped them into 1/4" pieces. I like baby spinach, and I took about 10 leaves and chopped those up into 1/4" pieces as well. I added that to the egg mixture.  When you pour it into the pans, be sure that it all gets evenly distributed.   They bake up pretty quickly, around 9 minutes or so.  Dunkin gives you two egg bites, the mini donut serving size is three. I pop them in ziplocs in the fridge and just pull a bag and reheat them in the microwave for a quick

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Bacon and Cheddar Omelet Bites

Since I already came up with a version of Dunkin Donuts new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites for myself, I decided to make the other variety that they are offering, Bacon & Cheddar, for my husband. Super simple.  Beat up some eggs with salt and pepper.  Add in some shredded cheddar and a slice of bacon cut into 1/4" pieces (I used kitchen shears).  Bake them for about 9 minutes in sprayed mini donut pans. They baked up light and fluffy.  The bacon stayed crisp and there's just the perfect amount of cheese.   I split them up into portions in zip top bags and that way we can just grab a bag and warm them up. My husband laughed when I told him 3 is the serving size.  I'll definitely be doubling the recipe next time!

Strawberry Pizzelles

Pizzelles are one of my favorite childhood cookies and I'm constantly looking for ways to put a new spin on them.  Since one of my favorite summer fruits is strawberries, I swapped out the vanilla in the original recipe with strawberry extract.  This post is sponsored in conjunction with #SummerDessertWeek !  I received product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of my recipes. All opinions are my own. I also added some red food coloring to give it a pink hue, but you can skip that if you like.  I use a cookie scoop to portion out the batter, it keeps all the pizzelles the same size, plus it's quicker than using two spoons.   They're delicious as is but you can take them over the top by fashioning them into a cylinder which we like to call fauxnoli.  You can pipe them full of whipped cream or buttercream.  If you want to prepare everything in advance, store the pizzelle in an airtight container, and the filling in a pastry or zip top bag in the f
