1BoxPillsbury White Premium Cake Mix (15.25oz)The cake mix does make a difference, these recipe times are based on Pillsbury White Cake Mix.
14Crushed Oreos Additional needed if you want to top the cake with them too.
1/2CupMini Chocolate Chips
3LargeEggs
1/2CupOlive Oil or Vegetable Oil
1CupWater
1TspVanilla Extract
Ninja Foodi
3CupsWater
Instructions
Using an 8-inch cake pan, either butter the bottom or use a piece of parchment paper that fits the cake pan. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, crushed Oreos, and mini chocolate chips. Mix with a wooden spoon until all ingredients spread evenly throughout.
Add in the eggs, oil, water, and vanilla. Continue to mix. If you use a stand mixer, be sure not to over mix.
Pour the cake batter evenly into the pan.
In the Ninja Foodi pot (gray pot), pour the 3 cups of water.
Place the cake pan on the lowest level of the wire rack.
Slowly and gently place the wire rack with the cake on it into the pot of the Ninja Foodi.
Set the Ninja Foodi to STEAM CRISP, then turn the DIAL to STEAM BAKE.
Set your cooking temperature to 280*F and time to 36 minutes. (Remember that going higher in temperature may cause the cake to crack.)
At this point, the valve on top does not matter if it's on seal or vent.
Close the lid and press START.
It will take about 20-25 minutes to bring the temperature up, then the count down starts.
Once the timer goes off, carefully open the lid, it will be steamy.
Transfer the rack/cake pan to a cooling rack.
Let it sit for 5 minutes to fully cool.
Using a thin knife, loosen the side of the cake from the pan. Carefully flip the cake or invert it onto the cooling rack to fully cool.
Once fully cooled, you can frost as you prefer. This one was done with buttercream and Oreos.
Notes
This recipe was tested with Pillsbury Cake Mix, not all brands of cake mix cook the same way so keep this in mind.Adding the 3 cups of water to the pot is very important and is needed to for the steam bake to work.As soon as the flour or in this case the mix is mixed in, do not continue mixing.An 8-inch Wilton Round Cake Pan was used for this, only one box of cake mix filled the entire cake pan.A Ninja Foodi Multi-Cooker 14 in 1 was used.
