Chocolate Bundt Cake with Oreo Cheesecake Filling #BundtBakers
 Chocolate Bundt Cake with Oreo Cheesecake Filling It’s time for my Bundt Bakers group today and our challenge was to have a surprise in the middle. I decided to go with an Oreo cheesecake filling in the middle of my chocolate bundt cake I’ve been making forever. Bundt cakes got popular in the 1960’s after Nordic Ware trademarked the word bundt. I think about every kitchen had a avocado bundt pan in the kitchen then. I remember my mom did. The next color I remember I think was a shade of red. Bundt cakes really increased in popularity after a Pillsbury Bake Off winner in 1966 won with a “Tunnel of Fudge” bundt cake. It took second place and the winner won $5000.00. This cake is so moist and it is even better the next day. 5.0 from 3 reviews Chocolate Bundt Cake with Oreo Cheesecake Filling Author: Mary Ellen Recipe type: Cakes, Desserts, Bundt Cakes Prep time: 20 mins Cook time: 45 mins Total time: 1 hour 5 mins Serves: Serves 10 12 tablespoons cocoa powder 3/4 cup boiling water 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped 3/4 cups buttermilk 3/4 cups butter, melted and cooled 1 2/3 cups packed brown sugar 2 eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoons baking soda 1/2 teaspoons salt 12 tablespoons cocoa powder 3/4 cup boiling water 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped 3/4 cups buttermilk 3/4 cups butter, melted and cooled 1 2/3 cups packed brown sugar 2 eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoons baking soda 1/2 teaspoons salt 3/4 cup Oreos, crushed 8 oz. cream cheese, softened 3 egg yolks 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/3 cup granulated sugar 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 3/4 cup Oreos, crushed 8 oz. cream cheese, softened 3 egg yolks 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/3 cup granulated sugar 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup confectioner's sugar 2 tablespoons milk 1/4 cup crushed Oreo's 1 cup confectioner's sugar 2 tablespoons milk 1/4 cup crushed Oreo's Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Follow our Pinterest board right here. Links are also updated each month on the BundtBakers home page. We take turns hosting each month and choosing the theme/ingredient. The theme for April is “Hidden Surprise” – Bundt cakes with fillings or stuffing. There was no constraint on filling and flavor choices.The only requirement was that the cake be filled/stuffed inside. Anshie from SpiceRoots was our host for this month.
