Oreo Cheesecake Cake
"This is easiest when broken into steps. I suggest making the cheesecake early enough in advance to freeze it, as that makes transferring it easy. I'm sure also that pretty much any chocolate cake recipe would work, so if you have a favorite use that. This is just one I've made many times and know I like the taste, texture, and ease of preparation. The higher quality cocoa powder you can use, the better. This white chocolate frosting is not strong on white chocolate flavor, but meant to mimic the creme filling of an Oreo...."
