Ingredients

• 1 package of Oreo cookies
• 1 cup of milk
• 1 cup of heavy cream
• 1/2 cup of powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 12 Ferrero Rocher chocolates

Directions

1. Prepare the Oreo Crust: Crush the Oreo cookies in a food processor until finely ground. You can also place them in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin if you don’t have a food processor.
2. Combine Oreos and Milk: In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with the milk. Stir until the mixture is well combined and the cookies have softened.
3. Whip the Cream: In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract using an electric mixer. Whip until stiff peaks form.
4. Fold the Mixture: Gently fold the whipped cream into the Oreo mixture until fully combined. The result should be a thick, creamy, and smooth filling.
5. Assemble the Cake: Pour half of the Oreo mixture into a cake pan and spread it out evenly to form the first layer. Then, place the Ferrero Rocher chocolates on top of the mixture, spacing them evenly.
6. Add the Final Layer: Cover the Ferrero Rocher chocolates with the remaining Oreo mixture, smoothing it out to create a nice even top layer.
7. Chill: Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, allowing it to firm up and set. For best results, let it sit overnight.
8. Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled and set, slice the cake into squares or wedges and enjoy this creamy, chocolatey delight.

   Yes, you can use store-bought whipped cream. Just be sure to use about 1 1/2 cups of whipped cream to replace the whipped heavy cream.

   For the best results, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but overnight is ideal to ensure it sets properly.

10. How do I cut this cake neatly?
    Use a sharp knife that has been dipped in warm water to make clean cuts. This helps prevent the cake from sticking to the knife and creates perfect slices.
