Soft and moist chocolate bundt cake stuffed with Oreo chunks, iced and topped with even more Oreos!
This cake is a chocolate and Oreo lover’s dream. The sponge is so moist and melt-in-your-mouth, and the crushed Oreos add a delicious crunch.
This is my favourite chocolate cake recipe. I just love how soft and moist it is, it almost melts in your mouth. The vegetable oil and buttermilk are what makes this cake so moist. They also make the batter beautifully silky, you’ll want to dip your finger in and ‘taste test’ 😉
TIP: If you can’t get hold of buttermilk, make your own! Just add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to a measuring jug, then add 240ml of milk. Leave for 5 minutes, then it’s ready to use!
Enjoy!
Chocolate Oreo Bundt Cake
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 55 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 10 minutes
Ingredients
- 12 Oreos roughly crushed
- 2 and 3/4 cups self-raising flour 340g
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder 50g
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter 115g, softened
- 2 and 1/4 cups caster/granulated sugar 450g
- 1 cup vegetable oil 240ml
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup buttermilk 240ml
For the Glaze
- 2 and 1/2 cups icing/powdered sugar 312g
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- About 4 - 5 Oreos for topping, roughly crushed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F/176C. Spray a 10" bundt pan and dust with cocoa powder, then set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cocoa powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on high speed until smooth and creamy. Add the sugar and beat on high speed until well combined. Add the oil, eggs, and vanilla and beat until combined.
- With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients in three additions alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Fold in the Oreo chunks.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50 - 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean with moist crumbs. Let the cake cool for 20 minutes in the pan on a wire rack before removing. Leave to cool completely before frosting.
For the Glaze
- Whisk together the icing sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Add more milk if too thick. Pour over the bundt cake, and sprinkle with Oreo chunks.
Notes
TIP: If you can't get hold of buttermilk, add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar into a measuring jug, then pour in the milk. Leave for 5 minutes, then it's ready to use!

June 22, 2017 at 3:38 pmCan I make cake ahead of time?
Marsha
June 22, 2017 at 4:22 pmLeftovers can be stored, covered, in the fridge for up to 2 – 3 days. You can bake this cake 1 day in advance. Allow to cool completely, then cover tightly and keep in the fridge until ready to glaze and serve. This cake also freezes well for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before serving. 🙂

January 10, 2016 at 8:19 pmI love your Oreo bundt, it is great to find a bundt recipe in metric measurements too (I’m in England) as most seem to be in cups which we don’t use over here. Would love a slice please!

Linda@ Today She Loves
January 13, 2016 at 2:32 amOreos have become a staple in some of my recipes. Can’t go wrong with it! This recipe is already putting me in a nice food coma.
Marsha
January 13, 2016 at 10:14 amHaha same here, Linda! I’m really trying to eat better 😉
Lynn | The Road to Honey
January 13, 2016 at 11:01 pmI always forget to pick up buttermilk from the store. Luckily I always have lemons on hand. . .so I generally find myself improvising with milk and lemon juice. It’s good to know that I can also use vinegar if we happen to have a lemon shortage in our house. 😉
But enough about buttermilk. Can we talk about this cake? It is so pretty. You can tell from the photos just how moist it truly is. And that glaze. . .it looks so stunning up against the rich, chocolatey cake. .
Marsha
January 13, 2016 at 11:13 pmThanks so much, Lynn!! 🙂
Dini @ The Flavor Bender
