I Have A New Recipe To Share - Oreo Cookie Cake

I am very lucky to work with an amazing woman named Chris.  She always has a wonderful smile and just the sunniest disposition.  She also loves to bake and has a husband who is not particularly fond of sweets.  Every Sunday, Chris brings in the results of a new recipe that she found and just had to try.

2 weeks ago Chris brought in the most amazing Oreo cookie cake, which disappeared very quickly.  She kindly shared the recipe, citing that it was a quick cake to make up.

So here is Chris' recipe for the Oreo Cookie cake.  I haven't made it myself, but I can tell you that I have tasted it and it is very yummy. The recipe looks like it would be really easy to make.  Enjoy!

1 package  (18 1/4 oz.) white cake mix
16 Oreo cookes, coarsely crushed
1 pakage (3 oz.) cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp. milk
2 C. heavy whipping cream
3/4C. powdered sugar
Additional Oreo Cookies for garnish

1. Prepare cake batter according to package directions, stir in crushed Ores.  Spoon mixture into a greased and floured 10" tube pan.

2. Bake at 350 degrees for 33 - 38 minutes or until a toothpick inserted neat the center comes out clean.  Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.

3. In a small bowl, beat cream chees and milk until smooth.  Beat in cream until mixture begins to thicken.  Gradually add powdered sugar; beat until stiff peaks form.  Frost cooled cake. Garnish with additional cookies.  Refrigerate leftovers.
