Oreo Cake

A coworker of mine wanted an oreo cake for her birthday, so I just kind of made this up...hope you all like it!




This is really easy and SOOOOO yummy! :-)

White cake mix (or if you have a from scratch recipe, that'll work too!)
White Vanilla frosting...I like the "fluffy" kind
1 package of oreos (you only need like half the package, so if you eat the other half, you're still good!)

Crush up 1/4 of that package of oreos.
Prepare the white cake mix as directed, only add an extra 1/3 cup of water. Mix in the crushed up oreos. Split batter between two 8 or 9" round cake pans. Bake as directed.

Let cakes cool in pans for 5-8 mins. Remove from pans and let cool on wire racks completely. Crush another 1/4 of the package of oreos.

After cakes have cooled, level one layer by cutting off the rounded top. Frost with the frosting and then top with some of the crushed oreos. Set second layer on top and make sure it settles well. Frost the rest of the cake completely.

The easiest way I have found to get the crushed oreos on the outside is to just grab a handful and stick them on! :-)

Take four whole cookies and carefully cut them in half. Space them evenly on the top and put one whole cookie in the center. Voila! :-)
