Oreo Bundt Cake

Oreo Bundt Cake
Any regular reader will know I love a cake challenge. This week, my pals at Statuo moved into their new office, which seemed the perfect opportunity for an office warming bundt! Now I know what I like, but I wanted something that his team would absolutely love, so I set down the challenge... You give me a theme, and I'll whip it into a cake. Turns out Oreos are their favourite biscuits, so off I trot. 

Similarly to the Bourbon, KitKat, Custard Cream, cookie and Penguin bundts I've made, I wanted the cake to taste of actual Oreos, so I blitzed some up in our Nutribullet (they would be so proud...) and mixed them into the batter. Bingo. I also baked some little Oreos inside the cake. I wish I could show you how this tuned out, but unfortunately, it was eaten too quickly! It works though... 

 Ingredients:
    Oreo Bundt Cake
  • 225g butter
  • 350g golden caster sugar
  • 100g soft brown sugar
  • 4 medium eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 300g plain flour
  • 50g good quality cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 200ml vanilla yoghurt 
  • 75ml chocolate milk
  • 2 tablespoons of Cadbury's chocolate spread
  • 5 full sized Oreos - blitzed to dust in a food processor or bashed like hell in a bag... 
  • 8 mini Oreos (1 bag)
  • 300g Icing sugar
  • Mini Oreos to decorate

Method:
  1. Preheat the oven to gas 3/160 c
  2. Prepare a regular sized bundt tin - 2.4l, 10 cup, 10 inch with Cake Release spray and dust with flour mixed with a little cocoa.
  3. Cream the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. 
  5. Add the extract.
  6. In a separate bowl, measure out the flour, cocoa, bicarbonate of soda and salt.
  7. Pour the yoghurt and chocolate milk into a jug and stir in the chocolate spread.
  8. Sift in a third of the flour mix followed by half the yoghurt mix. Repeat this until everything is combined.
  9. Give everything a quick mix on a low speed for about 10 seconds.
  10. Pour the mix into your prepared tin. 
  11. Poke in the mini Oreos, ensuring they are well covered. 
  12. Bake in the centre of the oven for about 1 hour 15 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. 
  13. Leave the cake to cool for ten minutes before removing from the tin.
  14. When the cake is fully cool, mix the icing sugar with enough water to make a runny icing. Tip over the cake and decorate with more Oreos!
