Cookies and Cream Bundt Cake – Soft, tender cake loaded with chunks of Oreos in every bite with more Oreos on top!! Easy and a crowd favorite!!
I’ve baked or added Oreos into just about every type of dessert including brownies, bars, and cupcakes but never a cake until now. I don’t know what I was waiting for.
The cake is soft, tender, and loaded with chunks of Oreos in every bite. They soften to a perfect texture while baking.
The frosting is fluffy, light, and I couldn’t resist garnishing the cake with more Oreos. Who can resist Oreos?
It’s an extremely easy cake that takes advantage of a couple baking shortcuts. I was in a hurry to get this cake made for a party and no one who ate it had a clue how fast and easy this it was. They were too busy oohing and ahhing about how good it tasted.
The cake base is a box of white cake mix but you can use this scratch recipe. For the frosting I cheated and used storebought frosting or go ahead and make the scratch frosting I have listed in the recipe.
When you’re adding the Oreos to the cake batter try to just add whole pieces rather than crumbs because too many crumbs in the batter will cause the cake to look muddy or ‘dirty’.
Also don’t overmix them into the batter because the results won’t be as pretty.

Cookies and Cream Bundt Cake
Ingredients
Cake
- one 15.25-ounce box white cake mix (I used Duncan Hines but you can use this scratch recipe
- 24 Oreo Cookies, from a 14.3-ounce package, quartered; plus more for garnishing
Frosting
- one 14-ounce container storebought whipped fluffy white frosting
- OR
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
- about 2 to 2 1/4 cups confectioners’ sugar
- 2 to 3 teaspoons cream or milk
Instructions
- Cake – Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 12-cup Bundt pan very well with floured cooking spray or grease and flour the pan; set aside.
- Make cake according to package directions likely adding 3 egg whites, water, and oil.
- Stir in the Oreos; don’t overmix. Tip – When adding the Oreos, try to just add whole pieces rather than crumbs because too many crumbs in the batter will cause the cake to look muddy or ‘dirty’. Turn batter out into prepared pan and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes or until done and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Set cake aside to cool in pan for about 10 to 15 minutes before inverting it onto a cake stand or platter. Allow cake to cool completely before frosting it.
- Frosting – Use storebought frosting (and skip to step 7) OR to a large bowl (or to the bowl of a stand mixer) add the butter and beat until light and creamy.
- Add the confectioners’ sugar, vanilla, and beat with an electric mixer (or use the paddle attachment of a stand mixer) to incorporate.
- Add the cream slowly in the amount necessary to achieve desired frosting consistency.
- Spread frosting over cake. If you have extra frosting it will keep airtight in the fridge for at least 2 weeks.
- Add Oreos for garnishing as desired and serve. Cake will keep airtight at room temp for up to 4 days or in the fridge for up to 1 week. I’m comfortable storing frosted items at room temp, but if you’re not store in the fridge noting cake will be more prone to drying out in the fridge.

Made this in the form of a sheet came for the birthday of an Oreo living friend last summer. The fancy store bought birthday cake they had was only half eaten by the end of the night – but this cake…not a cookie crumb left too be had! Since then, have been asked to bake one for various parties about a dozen times – have used different flavor sandwich cookies and frosting combos and all have been big hits!
Going to try a variation tomorrow using chocolate chip cookies. Can’t wait to see how that turns out!
Thanks for the 5 star review and glad this has been a hit on multiple occasions! Great thinking to mix of the flavor of cookies/frostings to end up with some fun variations!

Can I use a different pan for this or do I need a bundt pan?
I’ve only made it as a Bundt but you could probably make as a 9×13 cake, adjusting baking time as necessary.
Hands down probably one of the BEST bundt cakes out there!
Awww, thanks :) It didn’t last long that’s for sure!
This cookie/cream cake looks really amazing. I love it!!! I would try this out on a weekday soon.
thanks!
hey girl- this looks amazing! yummy!
Oreo’s are so good in desserts! I use Duncan Hines Cake mixes and they always turn our well. I replace the water with 2% or whole milk.
My mom does the same thing!
This looks so good! Could you ever do a copycat Oreo cookie recipe? I have tried copycat Oreo recipes, but they never measure up to the taste of a real Oreo. Just looking for a healthier alternative! :)
I haven’t ever done copycat Oreos because I know how hard it would be to replicate both the snappy crunch of the cookie and the filling of the Oreo. I don’t worry about healthiness levels when I decide to just have Oreos. Ignorance is bliss :)
Oreos are a great mix in to an otherwise plain white cake! I love the idea of cookies and cake–mixing two desserts together is always better than one :)
Two desserts is always better than one! Have a great weekend!
