Tips & Variations

  • For a nutty twist, sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts over the top before baking.
  • Use regular whipped cream instead of Cool Whip if you prefer a fresher topping.
  • Add a pinch of sea salt to the butter slices to enhance the chocolate flavor.
  • Try layering in some peanut butter chips for a sweet and salty variation.

Storage

Store any leftover dump cake covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat individual portions gently in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to regain the warm, gooey texture. This dessert does not freeze well due to its creamy layers.

How to Serve

A white plate holds a dessert with three main layers: the base is made of dark, crumbly chocolate brownie pieces with rough texture scattered unevenly, the middle layer is a scoop of smooth, creamy vanilla ice cream placed on top of the brownie, and the top layer is a rich, glossy dark chocolate sauce being poured over the ice cream, creating thick drips running down the sides and pooling slightly on the plate. The background is a white marbled texture. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

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

Yes, feel free to experiment with other chocolate sandwich cookies or even chocolate chip cookies for a different flavor profile. Just keep the quantity similar.

Is it necessary to thaw the whipped topping before using?

Yes, thawing the whipped topping makes it easier to spread evenly and helps it integrate smoothly into the layers.

Ingredients

Scale

Base Layer

  • 25 Oreo cookies

Wet Ingredients

  • 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 8 ounce whipped topping (Cool Whip), not frozen
  • ½ cup sweet salted butter, sliced

Dry Ingredients

  • 15¼ ounce chocolate cake mix
  • 8 additional Oreos, chopped (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) to ensure it reaches the ideal temperature for baking your cake evenly.
  2. Prepare Baking Dish: Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan thoroughly with cooking spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  3. Arrange Cookies: Lay the 25 Oreo cookies in a single, even layer across the bottom of the greased baking dish to create the crunchy base.
  4. Pour Condensed Milk: Evenly pour the entire 14-ounce can of sweetened condensed milk over the Oreo cookies, which adds moisture and sweetness to the dessert.
  5. Spread Whipped Topping: Gently spread the 8 ounces of whipped topping over the condensed milk layer to add a light and creamy texture.
  6. Add Cake Mix: Sprinkle the dry 15¼-ounce chocolate cake mix evenly over the whipped topping to provide the cakey topping layer.
  7. Top with Butter: Place sliced ½ cup sweet salted butter pieces evenly across the surface; these will melt and help create a moist, rich cake.

  9. Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden and bubbly, and the butter has melted into the cake mix.
