Week 14: Ben's Oreo Cake

I made this cake for Ben Schulthies's farewell last Friday. I am so excited for him and hope him the best of luck in Portland Oregon.

Recipe

1 box Devils Food cake mix
2 6oz packages chocolate
1/2 c oil
1/2 c water
1 c sour cream
4 eggs
crushed oreo's

I got the frosting recipe from Bakerella.

Mix together and pour into floured and greased 9 inch round layer cake pans. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes. Remove cake to wire rack and let cool completely. Frost then cover with more crushed oreo's.

If you dont want the crushed oreo's to melt into the cake freeze them first.
