Ingredients
Scale
Main Cake Ingredients:
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
Crust and Topping Ingredients:
- 2 cups crushed Oreos
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Crush Oreo cookies into fine crumbs and blend thoroughly with melted butter to create a smooth, cohesive base.
- Press the Oreo-butter mixture evenly into the bottom of a greased cake pan, creating a compact, uniform crust layer.
- Whip peanut butter, sugar, and eggs together until the mixture becomes light, fluffy, and completely integrated.
- Gradually incorporate flour and milk into the peanut butter mixture, stirring gently to maintain a smooth, lump-free consistency.
- Sprinkle chocolate chips throughout the batter, folding them in delicately to ensure even distribution.
- Transfer the batter carefully over the prepared Oreo crust, spreading it gently to cover the entire surface.
- Place the cake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 25-30 minutes, monitoring until the center sets and a toothpick emerges clean when inserted.
- Remove from oven and let the cake rest and cool slightly before cutting into serving portions.
Notes
- Crush Oreos finely to create a smooth, even crust that provides a perfect base for the cake’s rich texture.
- Use room temperature ingredients to ensure the peanut butter mixture blends seamlessly and creates a more uniform batter.
- For a gluten-free version, swap regular flour with almond or coconut flour and use gluten-free Oreo-style cookies as the crust base.
- Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top after baking to enhance the sweet and nutty flavors, creating a delightful flavor contrast.
