We’re calling it—this is the official party dessert of summer. We started with a cake, then we poked strawberry jam and vanilla pudding inside. But then we couldn’t leave well enough alone (when have we ever?), so we added a layer of whipped topping with crushed-up Golden Oreo™ cookies and finished with fresh strawberries and more Oreo cookies—because.

1

Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
2

Make and bake cake as directed on box for 13x9-inch pan; cool in pan on rack 5 minutes.
3

With handle of wooden spoon (1/4 to 1/2 inch in diameter), poke holes almost to bottom of cake every 1/2 inch, wiping spoon handle occasionally to reduce sticking.
4

In small microwavable bowl, microwave jam uncovered on High 2 minutes, stirring after 1 minute, until mixture is warm and spreadable. Pour over cake; spread evenly over surface, working back and forth to fill holes.
5

In large bowl, beat pudding mix and milk with whisk about 2 minutes or until starting to thicken. Pour over cake; spread evenly over surface, working back and forth to fill holes. (Some filling should remain on top of cake.) Refrigerate 1 hour 30 minutes.
6

In medium bowl, stir together whipped topping and 1 cup of the chopped cookies. Spread evenly over cake. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Just before serving, top with chopped strawberries and remaining 1 cup chopped cookies. Cut into 5 rows by 3 rows.

Expert Tips

Chopping the cookies, as opposed to crushing or crumbling, gives the cookies a more attractive appearance when used as a garnish.
Strawberry jam that is darker or more vibrant in color will make for a prettier appearance when the cake is cut.
