Recipe Notes

Cake Mix: Any 15.25 chocolate cake mix should work for this recipe. Devil's Food Chocolate cake mix works best due to its very chocolatey flavor and dark color, which almost mimics the chocolate in Oreos.

Yogurt: The yogurt replaces the eggs in the cake mix directions. Replacing the eggs with yogurt works very well.

You can use a 5.3-ounce plain or vanilla yogurt. This works with both dairy AND non-dairy yogurt. I’ve tested it with plain & vanilla dairy yogurt, as well as coconut vanilla and almond vanilla yogurt.

Pudding Mix: Oreo pudding mix works best for this recipe; if need be, you can use a 3.4-ounce vanilla pudding mix.

Milk: Whole milk works best; oat milk will work in a pinch. Try to avoid using soy milk, as it and pudding mixes do not mix well.

How to Make Oreo Poke Cake With Pudding

Preheat your oven to 350℉ and grease your baking dish.

Stir together the cake mix, yogurt, water, and vegetable oil until well combined, then pour into your baking dish and spread the batter out evenly.

Bake the cake for about 25-28 minutes, then let cool completely (about an hour).

Make the pudding by whisking together the pudding mix and milk, then poke holes in the cooled cake, about a ¾ -1 inch apart, with a straw, and pour the pudding on top of the cake and into the holes.

Let chill again, in the fridge, for about an hour.

Spread the thawed cool whip over the entire top of the cake and place 12 oreos on top, in the center of where each slice will be, then crush the remaining 3 oreos into crumbs and sprinkle on top.

Slice into 12 pieces and enjoy!
