What is a Dump Cake?
We love making dump cakes. It is not liking making a traditional cake where you mix all the ingredients together and put in a baking pan. Instead of mixing the ingredients you basically dump them in the pan and bake.
Dump Cake Recipes are so easy and make the best dessert.
What topping is good on Oreo Dump Cake?
This Oreo cake is wonderful alone, but I love to add some toppings. The cake is amazing served warm and topped with a scoop of ice cream. It is also great with whipped topping or Homemade Whipped Cream Recipe.
We also like to drizzle with some chocolate syrup for a perfect over-the-top dessert. Easy Homemade Caramel Sauce is another favorite.

Variation ideas
- Cookies. We used classic oreo cookies. However, other types such as peanut butter oreo cookies would be amazing.
- Cake Mix. Feel free to use different types of cake mix. We used plain chocolate but triple chocolate fudge cake mix would be delicious. More ideas include devil’s food cake, red velvet cake mix and yellow cake mix.
How to make oreo dump cake:
- Step 1 – First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Step 2 – While the oven is preheating, get your 9×13 baking pan ready and spray with cooking spray.
Step 3. Place the Oreo cookies in the bottom of the baking dish in a single layer.
Step 4. Next, pour the sweetened condensed milk over the top of the Oreo cookies.
Step 5. Spread the cool whip on top using a spatula.
Step 6. Finally, sprinkle the box chocolate fudge cake mix all over the top. Do not mix together.
Step 7. Top the cake with the butter slices until most of the cake is covered.
Step 8. Bake and serve.
How to store
- Store your leftovers in the refrigerator. We just covered it with a plastic wrap in the pan that we baked it in and put in the refrigerator. It will last about 5 days in the refrigerator.
- We like to serve it warm. Once we are ready to eat it the next day, dish up a serving and heat in the microwave. I start off to about 20 seconds and then reheat if I want it a little hotter.
Serving ideas
- Top with vanilla ice cream and crushed Oreo cookies. We love this easy homemade vanilla ice cream.
- If you really love Oreo cookies, you could top with cookies and cream ice cream. Chocolate fans might love a scoop of chocolate on top. I personally love the vanilla because it helps to balance out the rich chocolate.
- We normally crush the Oreo cookies in a ziplock bag using a rolling pin. Since you do not need a bunch, this works just fine.
