Exciting Story

The first time I made this Oreo Red Velvet Cheesecake Drip Cake, it was for my husband’s birthday. He’s a big fan of both red velvet cake and Oreos, so I decided to combine his two favorite desserts into one epic cake. The look on his face when I brought out the cake was priceless! And let me tell you, the taste did not disappoint. The cake was a huge hit, and now it’s become a tradition in our household to make this cake for every special occasion. It’s more than just a cake; it’s a celebration in itself, filled with love, joy, and lots of Oreos!

Why This Oreo Red Velvet Cheesecake Drip Cake?

  • Double Delight: Combines two beloved desserts—red velvet cake and Oreo cheesecake—into one spectacular creation.
  • Showstopper: Perfect for special occasions, this cake is guaranteed to impress.
  • Delicious Contrast: The rich creaminess of the cheesecake layers pairs perfectly with the soft, slightly tangy red velvet cake.

How to Make Oreo Red Velvet Cheesecake Drip Cake

Step 1: Prepare the Red Velvet Cake
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking soda, cocoa powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, buttermilk, red food coloring, vanilla extract, and white vinegar. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until smooth. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely.

Step 2: Make the Oreo Cheesecake Layer
Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C). In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and crushed Oreo cookies. Pour the mixture into a greased 9-inch round cake pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set. Allow the cheesecake to cool completely before removing it from the pan.

Step 3: Make the Frosting
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating until smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4: Assemble the Cake
Place one red velvet cake layer on a serving plate and spread a layer of frosting on top. Gently place the Oreo cheesecake layer on top of the frosting. Add another layer of frosting on top of the cheesecake layer, then place the second red velvet cake layer on top. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.

Step 5: Make the Chocolate Drip
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for a minute, then whisk until smooth and shiny. Allow the ganache to cool slightly before drizzling it over the top of the cake, letting it drip down the sides.

Step 6: Decorate and Serve
If desired, garnish the cake with additional crushed Oreos or decorative sprinkles. Slice and serve!

Tips

  • Make sure the cheesecake layer is completely cooled before assembling the cake to prevent it from melting the frosting.
  • For a cleaner drip, let the ganache cool slightly so it’s thick enough to control the drips down the sides of the cake.

Substitutions and Variations

  • Different Cookies: Substitute the Oreos with your favorite cookies, like chocolate chip or peanut butter, for a unique twist.
  • Gluten-Free: Use gluten-free flour and gluten-free cookies to make this cake gluten-free.

Make a Healthier Version

  • Substitute the cream cheese with a lower-fat version or use Greek yogurt for a lighter cheesecake layer.
  • Use a sugar substitute in the cake and frosting to reduce sugar content.
