Spring is here and summer is soon to follow. You’ve been working out, eating right, determined to look snatched in those bikini pics on the beach. But our friends at Cooking Professionally are here to test your resolve. How soon will you crumble in the face of a rich, whipped cream-filled, chocolate dessert topped with everyone’s favorite cookies? Let’s find out.

Ingredients

• 1 (15.25-ounce) box chocolate cake mix, plus the ingredients listed on the package directions 

• 2 (4-ounce) boxes instant Oreo pudding mix 

• 3 cups milk, 2% or whole 

• 1 (8-ounce) tub whipped topping, thawed 

• 6 Oreo cookies, crushed

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

Spray a 9×13-inch baking pan with non-stick spray.

Step 3

Prepare the chocolate cake batter according to the package directions.

Step 4

Bake the cake according to the package directions, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 5

Let the cake cool for 10 minutes.

Step 6

Poke holes in the cake, at least 1-inch apart and using the handle of a wooden spoon or a spatula. Make sure there are plenty of holes all over the cake.

Step 7

In a medium bowl whisk together the Oreo pudding mixes and the milk until well-combined and thickened, about 1 minute. The mix will still be lumpy.

Step 8

Pour the pudding all over the warm cake, using the back of a spoon to spread it evenly all over the cake and gently pushing it down into the poked holes.

Step 9

Spread the whipped topping evenly over the pudding layer.
