Recipe #1 !

Hey all! I figured I'd start something new and try to get people to view my blog because, let's face it, who doesn't love dessert recipes?!

So, everyday I'm going to post a dessert recipe from one of my dessert books :)

Today's dessert recipe is: CHOCOLATE COOKIE CAKE ♥

**All recipes taken from either the Taste of Home Cake Mix Treats or the Betty Crocker Best Cupcakes and Cakes recipe books!**

Yield: 12 Servings

Ingredients:

• 1 package (18-1/4 oz.) white cake mix
• 16 Oreos, coarsely crushed
• 1 package (3 oz.) cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar (powdered sugar)
• Additional Oreos

Directions:

1. Prepare cake batter according to package directions; stir in crushed cookies. Spoon into a greased and floured 10 in. fluted tube pan (bundt pan).
2. Bake at 350°F for 33-38 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near 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 cheese and milk until smooth. Beat in cream until mixture begins to thicken. Gradually add confectioners' sugar; beat until stiff peaks form. Frost cake. Garnish with additional cookies. Refrigerate leftovers.

TIP: For a from-scratch flavor, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and one whole egg to a white cake mix in place of an egg white.

Hope you guys enjoyed this recipe :) check back in tomorrow for another one!
