Oreo Cake- Cookies and Cream

March 8, 2014 by Jenn

Let’s talk Oreo’s.

Chocolate cookie wafers with a cream filling.  Vanilla wafers with cream filling.  Chocolate wafers with birthday cake cream filling.  The list of Oreo flavours goes on and on!  I wish we could get all of the flavours in Canada- actually, strike that, no I don’t, as then I would eat them!   I found the Gingerbread Oreo’s on the shelf at Target this passed Christmas and they were so good!  Paul hated them, so it worked out well for me.  If you’ve been following me for a while, you will know that the Birthday Cake Oreo’s are my favourite!  It’s the sprinkles.

Thinking up ways to make amazing cakes is my favourite part of being a baker.   I’ve been wanting to make a Cookies ‘n Cream/Oreo cake for a while now and I was set on making it overflowing with cookies!  My favourite part of an Oreo is the filling, so I knew that I wanted to make a creamy filling for the cake, but I wanted it to be light and fluffy as opposed to heavy like the cookie version.

The cake has three layers to it, two chocolate, and one vanilla, and each has chopped up Oreo’s floating around the batter.  When the cookies bake, they soften up, so if you are worried about the cakes being crunchy, you can relax.  No broken teeth will be had. 

If you make this and take it to a party, you will be asked to bring it again, and again.  So be warned.

How to Make a Pink Zebra Cake

February 4, 2014 by Jenn

 It is sunny and warm in LA!!   We are in LA again for a week of filming and workshops at YouTube Space LA, and it has been so nice to escape the dreary winter weather we’d been having up in Canada.  It feels like paradise right now . . . short sleeves, bare legs . . . American Target.  Life is good!  All I need now is a sprinkle covered cupcake and it would be complete.  As I alluded to last post, it’s not all happiness right now, my friend on-screen and off, Beth from the YouTube channel CookingandCrafting, is going through some very challenging times with a sick family member. If you know Beth you will know how close she is with her family. They need your help. If you can donate any amount, please consider sending it to her brother Scott to help him on his road to recovery. The link to the medical fundraiser is here- http://www.youcaring.com/medical-fundraiser/help-scott-get-better-/133503.
