Okay … I have a confession to make … I’m really a greedy person at heart. Needless to say, I’m super picky. For example, I don’t like traditional Oreos but I looooove the golden Oreo’s **shout out to the genius who invented those**. Although I’m not a fan of the traditional Oreos I love cookies & creme desserts … At any rate, I love pound cake and so does my husband. He only helps add to my sweet tooth. He also has a a thing for traditional Oreos. Do you get where I’m going with this???
He and I were talking about how bad we really wanted pound cake but one with a twist. Me being the Pinterest guru that I am, I jumped on my phone to look for different pound cake recipes. I stumbled upon an Oreo pound cake recipe that looked beyond delicious. So I immediately wanted to make it.
I figured sharing is caring and some of you would might want to indulge! This is truly one of the best cakes I’ve made in a long time. The cake is perfectly dense and moist, just like a good pound cake should be. It’s a bit on the rich side though. Adding the Oreo crumbs on top of the powered sugar glaze was just brilliant!
If you try this recipe, share it with me! Take a photo of your cookies & creme pound cake and post it on social media – tag @MarriedToMotherhood so I’ll see.
