Tips & Variations

  • For extra richness, use full-fat whipped topping or homemade whipped cream instead of store-bought.
  • Try swapping the chocolate cake mix for a yellow or white cake mix for a different flavor profile.
  • Add a handful of chocolate chips or chopped nuts between layers for added texture.
  • Make sure the butter is thinly sliced so it melts evenly during baking and creates a moist topping.

Storage

Store leftover dump cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds or until warm. Avoid freezing as the texture of the whipped topping may change.

How to Serve

Can I use a different type of cookie instead of Oreos?

Description

A deliciously simple no-mixer dessert that layers Oreos, sweetened condensed milk, whipped topping, and chocolate cake mix to create a rich and indulgent Oreo Dump Cake. This easy-to-make recipe requires minimal prep and bakes into a moist, flavorful cake with a creamy topping and crunchy cookie finish.


Ingredients

Scale

Base Layer

  • 3034 Oreo cookies
  • 1 can (14-ounce) sweetened condensed milk
  • 8 ounces whipped topping, thawed

Topping

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 1 ½ sticks unsalted butter, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350º Fahrenheit. Spray a baking pan with cooking spray to ensure the cake does not stick and is easy to remove after baking.
  2. Layer Oreos and Condensed Milk: Place a single layer of Oreo cookies in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour the entire can of sweetened condensed milk evenly over the Oreo cookies, distributing it carefully to cover them all.
  3. Add Whipped Topping and Cake Mix: Spread the thawed whipped topping evenly over the layer of Oreos and condensed milk. Then, sprinkle the dry chocolate cake mix evenly over the whipped topping layer to ensure an even bake.
  4. Top with Butter and Bake: Arrange thin slices of unsalted butter over the chocolate cake mix evenly. This will melt and seep through during baking, creating a moist cake. Bake the layered dessert at 350º Fahrenheit for 45 minutes until golden and bubbly.
  5. Decorate and Serve: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Decorate the top with crushed Oreo cookies for added texture and flavor before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the whipped topping is fully thawed before spreading for easier layering.
  • You can substitute regular butter with salted butter if preferred, but reduce added salt elsewhere.
  • For a richer flavor, use high-quality chocolate cake mix.
  • This dessert is best served warm and can be paired with vanilla ice cream.
