#39 Cookies-n-Cream Cake
CAKE
1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix
1 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 egg whites
1 cup crushed Oreos
FROSTING:
3 cups confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 egg whites
12 Oreos
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one 9X13 or two 9" cake pans.
In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, water, oil, and 3 egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed for 2 minutes. Fold in crushed oreos and pour into pan(s).
Bake for 25 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted in the center of the cake
comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pans. If using 9" cake pans, remove cake and let cook on a baking rack.
FROSTING:
In a small bowl, blend the 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, shortening, vanilla, and 2 egg whites. Beat in remaining confectioners' sugar until creamy. Frost the cake, and garnish with remaining cookies.
Taste: 5/5 I ran scant on confectioners sugar (failed to measure before starting the frosting) so the frosting is a bit scant, but was still good. The cookies give a nice flavor.
Ease of preparation: 5/5 Easy as...cake.
Brit-rating: GREAT-ed it. "Mmm."
Serve to guests: Yes. Puts a nice spin on a regular white cake. Easy and tasty.
