Oreo Bundt Cake


This cake is a real eye-catcher if I do say so myself! The contrast between the dark cake and the bright white icing makes it look so impressive while being so simple. Plus the taste! Who could resist an oreo chocolate cake, I mean come on. That would be some serious will power that even I do not posses.
Although I must say, I don't quite have a knack for bundt cakes yet. It seems like they always don't come out of the pan well enough. There is always a good chunk or two missing. At least you can cover this one up with icing? Always worth a shot.

I had actually made this quite a while ago, but never got around to posting the pictures and recipe. I thought that I might not bother, but how could I deprive you guys of a great and easy recipe.
Also, Halloween is coming up very soon! I think this black and white cake would make a great subtle Halloween dessert for any party. (Are you getting that ghostly vibe too?)
