I recently read a review of my blog that consisted of two words.
Calorie Heavy.
I was bit a taken aback by this short and decisive description. But, I decided to to not feel embarrassed or disappointed in the single minded perspective.
Know why? It’s SO true. I blog about baking. And 99% of the time, its cakes and cookies. That have lots of calories.
My blog is Calorie Heavy.
As am I.
Just sayin.
That being said, sharing this next calorie heavy cake with you is a great treat for me. Its probably the most fattening cake I have ever made.
Scratch that… I have made lots of cakes. Its just really yummy.
This quiet little unassuming cake packs a big punch.
It is a Oreo crumb covered, hot fudge dipped, chocolate covered cherry packed delicious white cake.
With a cherry on top.
Although I could not adore the oreo cookie crumb coating more… I have to tell you.
Its the amazingly sweet inside that I love.
Chocolate covered cherries.
Encased in a bed a sweet vanilla frosting.
Surrounded by a rich white cake.
Under a coat of hot fudge. Topped with oreo crumbs.
Now… I made this cake a week ago. But have been to scared to share it! I mean. Its a bit over the top.
I was going to offer a tutorial right away but it occurred to me… people probably dont want to make a cake that should really be served by the fork bite instead of by the plate.
Its just too much! My insane idea to make this cake must have been based on some weird pregnancy hormone.
I think.
Just for the record… next time I make this I am going to add more oreo. 😉

Did you like this post? If you did wanna click “Stumble It!” (right below these words) and share the love! Thanks so much!
This looks very similar to the oreop vanilla cake I made 2 weeks ago for my blog 4 layers of vanilla butter cake, with double stuff oreo and marshmallow icicng in between each layer. Then I covered the entire thing with crushed oreo. Go check it out, it was positively sinful… and I dont think its the pregnancy hormones, Im not even close to being pregnant, and I want to make stuff like this all the time.
Call me crazy. I think I want to make it. I know my hubs would love it! Calories smalories.
I simply must make this cake. Please share the tutorial.
Love it! Found you through Mingle Monday and so glad I did. Even if I don’t bake, am trying to cut calories, I can now live vicariously through your blog – Yum!
