This Midnight Binge Cake has layers of chocolate cake, chocolate chip cookies, and chocolate chip cookie dough, sandwiched with creamy chocolate fudge frosting & whipped chocolate marshmallow frosting! This is one decadent celebration cake recipe sure to impress.

I’ve been bad.

Really bad.

If you look above, you’ll know what I’m talking about. Do you see that slice of cake? Do you see the five, decadent, delicious, layers, and each smear of homemade, ultra-rich chocolate frosting that separates them? How about the layer of milk chocolate marshmallow frosting to tie it all together?

Told you I’ve been bad. But I really, really had to make it.

The idea for this cake has haunted me.

See, I came up with it a while ago, but I could just never bring myself to do it. That much decadence in one cake? It seemed insane.

Insanely good.

My bad influence/best friend Paige convinced me it was a wonderful idea and helped me figure out exactly which layers/frostings to do, and after a couple hours in the kitchen, this beauty was born.

What a beauty it is.

I’d say even harder than picking out the flavors, layers, and frostings, was picking a name. My roommate Nicole, Paige and I had quite an interesting phone call discussing possible names. Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Chip Cookie and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Layers and Chocolate Fudge Filling with Milk Chocolate Marshmallow frosting doesn’t quite roll off the tongue.

For some reason, Nicole was really into names that derived from soil layers.

Yes, soil layers. She suggested Bed Rock Cake, Wet Dirt Cake, and Eluviation Cake.

Paige’s ideas consisted of Cookie Dough Caress Cake, Stoner Heaven Cake, and many others that contained inappropriate words I won’t use here *ahem*.

After a solid 20 minutes of debate, we settled on Midnight Binge Cake, because we may have eaten this really late at night (or really early in the morning, depending how you look at it) after it was made. And it was so good.

The layers work together so well, and the frosting are both so delicious. The effort for this cake is so worth it, and the end result is so darn impressive. Call it what you want, this cake is heaven. Enjoy!
