Oreo Dump Cake

 

24 Oreo cookies, divided

1 can sweetened condensed milk

1 tub whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed

1 box chocolate fudge cake mix

1 1/2 sticks (12 T.) salted butter, sliced

 

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Arrange 18-20 Oreo cookies in a single layer on the bottom of the prepared pan, covering as much surface area as possible. Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the layer of Oreo cookies. Spread the thawed whipped topping over the sweetened condensed milk in an even layer. Sprinkle the dry chocolate fudge cake mix evenly over the whipped topping layer. Use a fork to break up any large lumps in the cake mix. Arrange the butter slices in a single layer on top of the cake mix, covering as much surface area as possible. Roughly chop the remaining 4-6 Oreo cookies and sprinkle them on top of the butter layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until the top is set and the butter has been absorbed into the cake mix. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Serve warm, scooping out portions with a large spoon. If desired, top individual servings with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup. Enjoy!
