For the Best Chocolate Cake

1. Preheat oven to 350º F. Prepare your three pans by spraying with baking spray or buttering and lightly flouring.
2. Add flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt and espresso powder to a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk through to combine or, using your paddle attachment, stir through flour mixture until combined well.
3. Add milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla to flour mixture and mix together on medium speed until well combined. Reduce speed and carefully add boiling water to the cake batter. Beat on high speed for about 1 minute to add air to the batter.
4. Distribute cake batter evenly between the three prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick or cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
5. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes, remove from the pan and cool completely.
6. Level the cakes to your desired measurements.

For the Chocolate Buttercream

1. Add cocoa to a large bowl or bowl of stand mixer. Whisk through to remove any lumps.
2. Cream together butter and cocoa powder until well-combined.
3. Add sugar and milk to cocoa mixture by adding 1 cup of sifted sugar followed by about a tablespoon of milk. After each addition has been combined, turn mixer onto a high speed for about a minute. Repeat until all sugar and milk have been added.
4. Add vanilla extract and espresso powder and combine well.
5. If frosting appears too dry, add more milk, a tablespoon at a time until it reaches the right consistency. If it appears to wet and does not hold its form, add more confectioner’s sugar, a tablespoon at a time until it reaches the right consistency.

For the Oreo Pops

1. Carefully twist apart all of the Oreo cookies. Using one of the pop sticks, make an indentation in the white filling of each cookie.
2. Melt the Candy Melts in the microwave in 30 second increments, stirring until completely melted and smooth.
3. Dip the end of one stick into the melted white chocolate, drizzle a little in the center of the white cookie filling and then gently press it into the indentation made.
4. Place the top of the cookie back on and allow white chocolate to harden (5 minutes or so), cementing the cookie back together with a stick inside.
5. Holding the stick, lower one side of the Oreo into the bowl of melted white chocolate. Allow the excess chocolate to drain off and gently place covered Oreo on a piece of parchment paper to harden.
6. Top with confetti sprinkles immediately before the chocolate hardens.

Assembly

1. Fill the cooled cake with the buttercream frosting. After layering all the cakes, frost the whole cake with the buttercream.
2. Place the Kit-Kat bars around the side of the cake. If you haven't already, please read my little note about this cake.
3. Add the Whoppers around the top rim of the cake. After, place the Oreo pops behind the Whoppers to create a circular shape.
4. Crush your extra Oreos and place them in the middle of the cake. Top with M&Ms and extra sprinkles!
