Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and line two 9-inch pans. Whisk sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla; beat 2 minutes. Stir in boiling water and divide into pans. Bake 30–35 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
- Whip heavy cream to stiff peaks. Beat cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth, then fold in whipped cream and crushed Oreos.
- Heat cream until simmering, pour over chopped chocolate, and stir until glossy. Let cool until thick but pourable.
- Layer cake with Oreo cheesecake filling, top with the second cake, and pour ganache over, letting it drip down the sides. Garnish with whipped cream and chocolate chips. Chill 30 minutes before slicing.
