Notes

Make ahead: The cake keeps in the freezer, tightly covered, for up to 2 weeks. Freeze slices individually for grab-and-go treats.
Vegan Oreos: Standard Oreos contain no animal ingredients, but check the label in your country in case of cross-contact concerns or recipe changes.
Nut-free option: Replace the cashews with an additional 1/2 cup (120 ml) of solid coconut cream and 1/2 cup (120 g) of a nut-free vegan cream cheese. The texture will be slightly less rich.
Coconut cream tips: Use full-fat canned coconut milk without guar gum if possible, as it separates cleanly. Chill the cans for at least 12 hours.
Gluten-free: Use gluten-free chocolate sandwich cookies in place of Oreos.
