Oreo Heath Cake: Delicious vanilla cake packed with big oreo chunks covered in vanilla frosting and topped with chopped Heath bars. INSANELY delish!
Once you try this cake you will be ruined for all others!
This cake is 100% inspired by my favorite blizzard from Dairy Queen.
It is an Oreo Heath Blizzard with no hot fudge. They add hot fudge to the Heath Blizzards, and it is very important to specify that you do not want that fudge. It takes away from the glorious Oreo flavor.
I have been ordering it for about six years now. Â I crave it in the winter. Â I dream of it in the summer.
And as I was driving home from DQ enjoying my favorite concoction, I realized.
I need to make this a cake.
White cake with Oreo chunks, vanilla frosting, and chopped up Heath bar toppings.
Real Oreo chunks.  I used about 30 cookies (or two rows in a package) and hand chopped each cookie into four pieces. No fine grate here!
I took one cup of frosting and added 1/2 cup of Heath chips for the frosting between the layers of cake.
I bought a bag of Heath bars a did a rough chop for the topping.
Things I might do differently:
Add more Oreo. Lots more. Maybe even some in the frosting too.
Try it as chocolate Oreo cake instead of white.
Use a vanilla Swiss Meringue buttercream icing. I think a more subtle sweetness would compliment the Oreo and Heath better.
This cake is delicious as is, but I can’t wait to make it again with the alterations.
And trust me, I will be making this again. Â I will make it my mission to perfect this recipe.
That is just the kind of sacrifices I will make for you.
And if you happen to love Oreo and Heath as much as I do, well… do you recommend any good workouts?
Heath is my favorite and Oreo too? YUM!
Oh my heavens Amanda! You make me smile! Not only for this beautiful and oh so yummy cake, but because you make me laugh. Thanks for both! Now I’m going to go back and drool over your pictures a little more.
Gail at The Tough Cookie has a great Swiss Meringue Buttercream icing that just might take this wonderful cake to the next level. Looking forward to seeing your next version of this.
This looks.so good! I may attempt it…smb scares me a bit!
AMANDA you are KILLING me!!! this sounds and looks AMAZING!!
oh.my.goodness!! I will definitely have to try this cake. I especially liked the idea of a chocolate cake with oreos. Yes, this cake must be made. As for workouts? Hmmm…Might need Bob and Jillian to work this cake off! 😉
will you share recipe later? Would love to make this into cupcakes?

As I was reading this I was thinking I do not like heath so i would make it with more oreos and use oreos in the frosting
Good Lord…this cake must be a sin!!
If you make it chocolate, then I think a “smidge” of chocolate ganache should be between the layers, along with the filling…it is the layer of flavor that will bind the Heath Bar together…I make something similar in another dessert and the chocolate ganache (with dark chocolate)is that “VOILA” moment!
