'Bird on A Cake' blogger Robin is behind this eerily delicious cookies and cream [Oreo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oreo-cookies-cream-bundt-cake) spider cake. Halloween is right around the corner and this tasty cookie confection is perfect for Halloween parties. Robin covers her cookies and cream spider cakes in [whole Oreo cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reeses-and-oreo), after using icing to give them eyeballs. After spreading them all around the sides of the cake, she takes chocolate icing and creates little spider legs, which shoot out from the sides of these cream-filled cookies.

This white and black Halloween cake has a sour cream base, and is filled with chunks of Oreo cookies. Having a mouth-watering dessert like this at a party will definitely leave your guests satisfied.

Usually I try to avoid spiders, but I think I'd make an exception for this creepy crawler-covered cake.
