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. I crave it in the winter. 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. 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?
oh gosh… I just love your blog! I wish I was more of a baker and a cook! All your entries make me want to try out baking… but I’ve already got so many hobbies my hubby would kill me if I picked up something else. So for now, I will drool all over your entries! Yummy!!!

Amanda, there is no way you could have avoided sharing this with us!!! I think this has got to be what most people dream about when they dream about cake….oh yes!
This cake looks amazing! I have no idea what Heath is, though, I haven’t heard of them in Australia. But I do love Oreo’s!

This is the kind of cake I want to faceplant in. Seriously.
The only thing preventing me from doing so is my fear of Swiss Meringue Buttercream!
You just reminded me that I have oreos in my kitchen right now. I love oreos! I have never tried the oreo heath blizzard but I now want to have both your cake and that ice cream!
Another winner, Amanda!
*Mouth drops open*

Whoa Nelly! This is right up my alley! YUM!
