Description
This Strawberry Cake with Oreo Crumble is a dreamy easy dessert with layers of soft vanilla cake, creamy strawberry filling, fresh berries, and crunchy chocolate cookie crumbs. It is one of my favorite dessert ideas for birthdays, spring parties, summer gatherings, and anyone looking for an easy recipe packed with sweet strawberry flavor, cookies and cream texture, and bakery-style charm.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup cream cheese, softened
1 cup heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup powdered sugar
2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped
18 Oreo cookies, crushed
1/2 cup white chocolate or vanilla glaze
2 whole strawberries, for topping
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease and line an 8-inch cake pan or two 6-inch cake pans.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, beat the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
5. Add the dry ingredients in batches, alternating with the milk and sour cream, and mix just until combined.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 28 to 32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. Let the cake cool completely before assembling.
8. Beat the cream cheese until smooth, then mix in the powdered sugar.
9. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
10. Fold in the chopped strawberries.
11. Crush the Oreo cookies into crumbs and small chunks.
12. Spread the strawberry filling over the cooled cake or between the cake layers.
13. Spoon the glaze over the top and let it drip slightly down the sides.
14. Finish with crushed Oreos and decorate with whole strawberries.
15. Chill for 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Do not assemble the cake until the cake layers are fully cool, or the strawberry filling can soften too much and make the layers slide.
