Decoration Tips
For a visually stunning presentation, drizzle the top of the cake with extra chocolate ganache and scatter some whole or crushed Oreo cookies on top. You can also garnish with chocolate curls or caramel sauce for an extra touch of elegance. Serve the cake on a cake stand to show off its layers, or slice it neatly to highlight the caramel cream and cookie textures.
Ingredients (for a tall 28 cm mold, or split into two for a 16 cm mold):
- 6 packages of Oreo cookies
- 800g caramel (thick consistency, similar to spreadable caramel)
- 800g heavy cream (minimum 36% fat content)
- Milk for soaking the cookies (as needed)
- 100g chocolate + 100g heavy cream (for chocolate ganache)
Method:
- Prepare the cream filling:
In a large bowl, combine the caramel and heavy cream. Whip the mixture until it reaches a firm, thick consistency. Using cream with at least 36% fat is important for ensuring the filling holds its shape. - Soak the Oreos:
Briefly soak the Oreo cookies in milk, being careful not to let them become too soggy. - Assemble the cake:
Start by layering the soaked Oreo cookies in the bottom of your mold. Spread a thick layer of the caramel cream mixture over the cookies. Continue alternating layers of soaked Oreos and caramel cream until all the ingredients are used. - Chill the cake:
Place the assembled cake in the refrigerator for several hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to set and for the flavors to combine. - Prepare the chocolate ganache:
To make the ganache, heat 100g of heavy cream in a small saucepan until it just begins to boil. Remove from the heat and add 100g of chopped chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. - Finish the cake:
Once the cake has set, pour the chocolate ganache over the top, letting it drip down the sides for a polished finish. Optionally, garnish with extra Oreo cookies or chocolate decorations.
