How To Make oreo cake
-
Step 1CAKE: Preheat your oven to 350*.
-
Step 2Prepare 2 greased and floured 9" cake pans.
-
Step 3Mix cake per directions on box using all ingredients listed under Cake.. except the Oreos.
-
Step 4Divide the batter evenly between the pans.Bake for approximately 25- 28 minutes or done.
-
Step 5Cool on rack till completely cool so it won't melt your Cool Whip.
-
Step 6FROSTING: Melt and cool the stick of butter.
-
Step 7Add Vanilla to cooled butter and stir in Cool Whip. The butter will thicken the mixture to Frosting consistency. Set it aside.
-
Step 8In a separate bowl break up enough of the Oreo cookies to spread between your cake layers. Make them pretty big pieces. I used 10 cookies. Use the whole cookie. Filling and all. Set it aside.
-
Step 9In another bowl. Use the whole cookie, filling and all. Blend or process 6-8 cookies to crumbs so you can decorate the sides of your frosted cake. It won't take a lot. Set it aside.
-
Step 10TO ASSEMBLE THE CAKE: Place 1 cake layer on the serving plate and spread with a large dollop of the cool whip Frosting. Use plenty and sprinkle broken cookie pieces on top of the cool whip.
-
Step 11Add the top layer and frost top and sides with the remaining cool whip frosting. Save enough to fill a small piping bag if you are going to decorate the top with rosettes.
-
Step 12I used a # 32 Wilton star tip on my bag.
-
Step 13I cut cookies in half to decorate the top of cake. To keep them from breaking so badly I separated each cookie and cut them in half with a very sharp knife. Then put the halves back together and stuck each half in a rosette of frosting.
-
Step 14Hold the plate at an angle over the container of crumbs and sprinkle as much as you want on sides of cake.
