CAKE MIX, PUDDING AND OREOS
This is an absolutely perfect weeknight dessert for the family and it is just so ridiculously easy to make that you can easily remember all the recipe ingredients when you go to the grocery store to pick up what you need. This cake is really so, so good. Who doesn't love Oreos? And cake?
ingredients needed to make cake (usually eggs, oil and water)
Instant Oreo pudding
milk
whipped topping (COOL WHIP)
crushed Oreo cookies
HOW TO MAKE OREO PUDDING POKE CAKE:
When cake is finished, allow to cool for about 10 minutes, then poke holes all over cake (about 1-inch) intervals using a wooden spoon handle.
In a medium bowl, add milk to pudding mixture and whisk until most of the lumps are removed. There will be a few lumps in the pudding because of the Oreo pieces that are in the pudding. Whisk for about 1-2 minutes until pudding just starts to thicken.
You want it to thicken slightly so it isn't overly runny but not fully thickened into pudding.

Mmmm! How much powdered sugar....if we're using? 🙂
Mmmmm.....
I made this with chocolate pudding once but I love the contrast with the white Oreo pudding.
This looks so yummy and different! I can't wait to make it! I think I might try it and share at camp this weekend!!
Hey Julie, I didn't even see that I typed that in there. Thank you for catching that! I have a recipe for yellow cake mix and chocolate pudding. And for that, I add 1/2 cup of confectioner's sugar to the pudding mix. I think for the Oreo Pudding, you don't really need the added sugar (but you could certainly add it if you feel it needs more sweetness).
Haha...I highly doubt it would need more sweetness. I thought maybe it was in there to make it more "frostingy" lol
Sadly no instant pudding like this in Australia but it looks like a fantastic dessert. So moist and delicious! It will be on my list when I visit back home!
Wow that really looks good Brandie. I know my son would love this one! (and me too). Have a great day. If you have time, stop on over and link up your favorite Blueberry Recipe! xo
Oreo instant pudding... I've seen it and thought about how delicious it must be. I really need to give this a try. Looks and sounds amazing. Yummy! Have a great weekend.

OMG.. this sounds too good to be true! This is pure genius Bran! We are having friends over Saturday night for a BBQ and now I know what dessert I'm serving!!! Thanks girl : )
I didn't know about Oreo pudding. (I just found out Oreos came in flavors!) This looks like a great cake for my granddaughter and I to make together -- let's me be a kid again.
I just discovered poke cakes! The one I saw was with a strawberry jello, but this with pudding looks even better! Yes please!1
Oh My Yumminess Brandie this looks so good!!!!
I've never had a pudding cake but this looks fun to make and delicious to eat!
This is my kind of cake, for real! I love everything about it! Beautiful and tasty..just perfect!!!!
I never even knew that they had oreo cookie pudding mix-guess I need to pay more attention in the baking aisle of the grocery store!
Great cake Brandie-keep 'em coming-Yum!
Oh I haven't made this cake in years! Thanks for the reminder. I am excited to try it with the Oreo pudding. Yum.
Oh I love this one even more!! Nice job, I am practically in love with oreos so this is just RIGHT up my alley
Oh No... Really? I think the button just popped off my jeans by reading this! haha! LOVE IT!! This is amazing, I was just thinking the other day wondering if you could do a poke cake with pudding. You must read minds! 😉
Love the idea of pudding and cake in one dessert. Perfect for a BBQ or party, and so versatile. Just pick your favorite combos, and bake away.
Have a great weekend!
I bought some of that oreo pudding (impulse buy) at the grocery store a few weeks ago and I had no idea what to do with it! Now I know, I am making this cake!! Looks delicious.
Oh, heavens. How fabulous is this?? And so pretty! Not that I'd be looking at it too long - too busy eating. 😉
I made an Oreo cake for my brother's graduation a couple of weeks ago and used some of that Oreo pudding. Ohmygoodness it's trouble. It's so good! This cake looks amazing.
Well now I think I should have been paying more attention in the pudding aisle. I never even knew there was such a thing as oreo pudding! Now that I know it exists, I'll have to get some and make this cake. 🙂
whoa! Oreo Pudding? Seriously? Where have I been? This looks delicious, Brandie!
