The basic concept of an Oreo cookie cake involves mixing crushed Oreo cookies with a creamy mixture, often made from milk, to create a cake-like dessert.

How to bake a cake over the stovetop?

Baking a cake over a stovetop, commonly known as “stove-top baking” or “stove-top cooking,” involves using a special pot or pan with a tight-fitting lid to simulate the baking process of an oven. The special pot or pan ideally should have a heavy bottom that can distribute the heat evenly and shouldn’t get too hot during the baking /cooking process. This method is often used when an oven is not available or as an alternative cooking technique.

I used a layer of salt (table salt) and then placed the trivet on it and on top of the trivet I placed the pan with the cake batter in it. Cover it tightly with the tight-fitting lid and cook on medium flame. Don’t open the pan at least for 25 to 30 minutes but please keep a watch on the cake as sometimes the cake starts cooking faster from the sides if this happens lower the flame slightly.

TIPS AND TRICKS TO REMEMBER

  1. Use a pot or pan with a tight-fitting lid. Also, it’s convenient if the lid is transparent so you can see what’s happening on the inside.
  2. Make sure the pot or pan used is heavy-bottomed as it would ensure even baking and the cake would be burn-free.
  3. Make sure the pot or pan is big enough for the trivet as well as the cake pan to fit in comfortably and the lid should be tight in place.
  4. A layer of table salt is a good idea, sprinkle it on the pot or pan in an even layer and then place the trivet in the middle.
  5. Always a good idea to preheat the pot or pan with the salt for at least 15 minutes before you place your cake pan on the trivet.
  6. The salt is used to spread the heat evenly in the pan don’t throw it out you can reuse the salt for another baking experiment.
  7. Always prepare the cake pan as you would do for an oven, butter, and line the pan well.
  8. Use medium flame but if you feel your cake is getting too cooked from the outside lower the flame slightly.
  9. Most important don’t leave the cake and go, keep an eye on it.

  8. I have used chocolate butter cream but you could use ganache or just dust it with powdered sugar when the cake cools down. Enjoy!
