Preparation Steps

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
• In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
• Carefully stir in the boiling water. The batter will be thin.
• In a small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar. Mix until smooth.
• Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared baking pan.
• Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the batter. Sprinkle half of the crushed Oreos over the cream cheese.
• Pour the remaining cake batter over the top. Sprinkle the rest of the crushed Oreos over the batter.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
• Once cooled, frost with your favorite buttercream frosting, if desired.
