Gather all ingredients: 1 stick of butter, 3 eggs, buttermilk, oil, cream cheese, vanilla extract, butter extract, yellow cake mix, pecans, oreos, cookies and cream pudding, and milk.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a 13x9 cake pan.

In a mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, cookies and cream pudding, and mix well.

In another bowl, cream together the stick of butter and cream cheese until smooth.

Add the 3 eggs to the butter and cream cheese mixture, mixing well after each addition.

Stir in the buttermilk, oil, vanilla extract, and butter extract until combined.

Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.

Fold in chopped pecans and crushed oreos gently.

Pour the batter into the prepared 13x9 cake pan.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Let the cake cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
