Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup hot water
• 1 package of Oreo cookies
• 16 oz cream cheese
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350F 175C

Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans

In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt

Add the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients

Mix until well combined

Pour in the hot water and mix until the batter is smooth

It will be thin, but that's okay

Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans

Place a layer of Oreo cookies on top of the batter in each pan

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean

Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack

While the cakes are cooling, prepare the cheesecake layer

In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture

Once the cakes are completely cool, spread a layer of the cheesecake mixture on top of one of the cakes

Place the second cake on top and spread the remaining cheesecake mixture over the entire cake

Chop the remaining Oreo cookies and sprinkle them on top of the cheesecake layer

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals until smooth

Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the cake

Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the cheesecake layer to set

Slice, serve, and enjoy your decadent Oreo Cheesecake Chocolate Cake!
