Ingredients
- 2 14.3 ounce packages Oreos divided
- 1/2 cup salted butter melted
- 16 ounces Cool Whip approximately 6 cups
- 2 tablespoons vanilla bean paste
- 1 cup dulce de leche spread
Instructions
- Line a 9-inch springform pan with saran wrap in a criss-cross manner so it acts like a sling. Line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper fitted to the circle. Set aside.
- In a large food processor, pulse 18 of the Oreos into crumbs. Add the melted butter and process until a paste forms.
- Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the springform pan, pressing own evenly. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, fold together the Cool Whip and vanilla bean paste.
- Spread 1/3 of the Cool mixture over the Oreo crumb base. Top with a single layer of oreo cookies. Repeat two more times, ending with a Cool Whip topping. Reserve 3-4 whole Oreo cookies.
- Cover loosely with plastic wrap and chill for a minimum of 6 hours but up to 2 days. Cake will get increasingly more spongy the longer it sits, so if you want it to have some texture, opt for less time. If you want a smooth cake, aim for 24 hours.
- Meanwhile, coarsely chop or break apart the remaining Oreos into large pieces and set aside.
- Carefully remove the springform sides and using the plastic wrap as a sling, slide the whole cake, parchment and all, to a serving platter.
- Pour the dulce de leche sauce over the top of the cake and then sprinkle with coarsely chopped Oreos.
- Slice using a serrated knife and serve immediately.
