Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cups vegetable oil
- 1 cups water
- 1 container vanilla frosting
- 12 cookies chocolate sandwich cookies
- 4 cookies extra chocolate sandwich cookies (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven according to the directions on the chocolate cake mix box (typically 350°F or 325°F for dark pans).
Step 2
Grease and lightly flour two 8- or 9-inch round cake pans, or line them with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, prepare the chocolate cake batter by combining the cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water as instructed on the box. Mix until smooth.
Step 4
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.
Step 5
Bake the cakes in the preheated oven for the time listed on the box (typically 25-30 minutes), or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 6
While the cakes are baking, crush 12 chocolate sandwich cookies into small chunks using a rolling pin or a food processor. Set aside.
Step 7
Once the cakes are baked, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
In a medium bowl, mix the vanilla frosting with the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies until well combined to create the cookies-and-cream frosting.
Step 9
Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate and spread a generous layer of cookies-and-cream frosting on top.
Step 10
Place the second cake layer on top, and cover the entire cake with the remaining frosting, smoothing it evenly over the top and sides.
Step 11
Crush the additional 4 chocolate sandwich cookies and sprinkle them over the top of the cake for garnish.
Step 12
Refrigerate the cake for 20-30 minutes to set the frosting, then slice and serve. Enjoy your Cookies N Creme Cake!
