Oreo Pudding Poke Cake

Cookies and cream is a classic flavor combination for a reason. There’s something about the crunchy chocolate and creamy vanilla filling that’s just a mouthful of heaven. That’s the inspiration behind this Oreo poke cake dessert. Because why just have a cookie, when you can have an entire slice of cake that incorporates all of your favorite things about Oreo cookies? Rich, chocolaty, and good for the soul, this Oreo pudding poke cake is a little slice of paradise. It’s a great recipe for any event, especially potlucks!
From the Chef: The gooey cookies 'n' cream center tastes so much like the center of an Oreo cookie, it's almost unbelievable. If I'm feeling especially indulgent, I'll even have a scoop of cookies 'n' cream ice cream on the side!
