Cookies And Cream Cake Food

COOKIES AND CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Process cookies in a food processor, and process until they are crumbs.
• (I've even put the cookies in a ziploc bag and pounded them with a rolling pin-- very theraputic) You should have about 2 1/4 cups of crumbs.
• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Grease 2- 9 inch pans with shortening, and dust with flour.
• Mix cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, on low speed for 1 minute.
• Scrape down sides of bowl, increase speed to medium, and beat for 2 more minutes.
• Fold in 1 cup of the cookie crumbs.
• Divide the batter between the 2 pans,and bake for 25-30 minutes, until it tests done.
• When cakes are done, cool in pans on racks for 10 minutes.
• Then invert each cake onto a rack, turning right side-up to cool.
• Cool completely.
• Beat the whipping cream on high speed until it forms stiff peaks, about 4 minutes or so.
• Gently fold in 1 cup of the cookie crumbs.
• Chill until cake is completely cooled.
• Here you can do either 2 or 4 layers.
• For 2, leave cake layers as is, and frost between the two layers, and top and sides of cakes.
• For 4 layers, use a serrated knife and slice each cake into 2 layers.
• Frost between each layer, and top and sides of cakes.
• Sprinkle remaining cookie crumbs on top of frosted cake.
• Store cake in fridge, covered for up to 5 days.

• Sprinkle gelatin over milk in large saucepan; let stand 1 min. Cook on low heat 3 min. or until gelatin is completely dissolved, stirring constantly. Add chocolate chips; cook until chips are completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring frequently. Place saucepan in bowl of ice water; let stand 8 to 10 min. or until gelatin mixture is slightly thickened, stirring frequently. Gently stir in chopped cookies and the whipped cream. Spoon into crust.

COOKIES-AND-CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Make the frosting: Put the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth; let cool slightly. Beat the butter, vanilla and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the melted white chocolate and beat until combined. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar until smooth.
• Assemble the cake: Place 1 cake layer on a platter; spread 1 cup frosting on top and sprinkle with 1/2 cup chopped cookies. Top with the second cake layer. Cover the whole cake with the remaining frosting, then press the remaining cookies into the sides.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter two 9-inch-round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper; butter the parchment and dust the pans with flour, tapping out the excess.
• Whisk 3 cups flour, the baking powder and salt in a bowl until combined. Beat 2 sticks butter and the sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to medium; beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl as needed. Beat in the vanilla. (The mixture may look separated at this point.)
• Mix 1/2 cup water with the cream in a liquid measuring cup or bowl. Beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the cream mixture, beginning and ending with flour, until just smooth.
• Divide the batter between the prepared pans. Bake until the cakes are lightly golden on top and the centers spring back when pressed, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edge of the pans and turn the cakes out onto the racks to cool completely. Remove the parchment. Trim the tops of the cakes with a long serrated knife to make them level, if desired.

NEELY'S COOKIES AND CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Spray 2 (9-inch) cake pans with cooking spray and dust with flour.
• In a large bowl, using a hand-held mixer, combine the flour, cocoa, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the eggs and egg yolk, 1 at a time, and beat until well mixed, then add in the melted butter and combine. Next, add the buttermilk and beat until smooth, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add in the crumbled cookies and beat until incorporated.
• Pour the batter evenly into the cake pans and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool, on a rack, in the pans for 5 minutes. Turn the cakes out onto a rack and let cool completely. Frost with Cookies and Cream Cheese Icing and serve.
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer, blend the butter and cream cheese until smooth, about 3 minutes. Add the salt and vanilla. Add in the confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, until smooth. Beat in the crumbled cookies. Frost the chocolate cookie cake when the cake has cooled.

COOKIES & CREAM FRIDGE CAKE

Steps:

• Oil a 20cm loose-bottomed or springform cake tin and line with baking parchment, ensuring the inside of the tin is fully covered. Whisk the cream, mascarpone, vanilla and icing sugar together in a large bowl until smooth and holding soft peaks.
• Line the base of the tin with a single layer of the cookies, (don't worry if there are small gaps, as these will be filled with the cream mixture). Spoon over a third of the cream mixture and smooth with a spatula, spreading it to the edge. Repeat twice with the rest of the cookies and the cream mixture. Cover and chill for at least 24 hrs, or up to two days.
• Melt the chocolate in 20-second bursts in the microwave, or in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, ensuring the base of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Leave to cool for 10 mins. Unwrap the cake, remove it from the tin and peel off the parchment. Drizzle over the melted chocolate, letting it drip down the sides, and crumble over the extra cookies. Serve, or chill for up to 1 hr.

COOKIES & CREAM PARTY CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease and line two 20cm cake tins with baking parchment - if your cake tins are quite shallow, line the sides to a depth of at least 5cm. Put 200g flour, 8 tbsp cocoa powder, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda, 280g light brown soft sugar and 1 tsp salt in a bowl and mix well. If there are any lumps in the sugar, squeeze these through your fingers to break them up.
• Measure 200ml buttermilk, 100ml coffee, 150ml oil and 2 tsp vanilla in a jug. Add 2 eggs and whisk until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk until well combined. Pour the cake mixture evenly into the two tins, and bake for 25-30 mins until risen and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool in the tins for 10 mins, then turn out onto a wire rack, peel off the baking parchment and leave to cool.
• Repeat steps 1 and 2, so that you have 4 sponge cakes in total. These sponges can be made up to three days ahead and will stay moist if wrapped in cling film, or you can wrap well and freeze for up to two months.
• To make the icing, put the butter in a large bowl and sieve in half the icing sugar. Roughly mash together with a spatula, then whizz with a hand mixer until smooth. Add the cream cheese and sieve in the remaining icing sugar, mash together again, then blend once more with the hand mixer. Put the Oreos in a food processor and whizz to fine crumbs. Add the biscuit crumbs to the icing and mix again until combined.
• Next, make the cookie cake toppers. You'll need one Oreo for each letter of the word you'd like to write - someone's name or, like we have done, 'WOW!' Carefully insert a skewer into the creamy filling in the middle of each Oreo - some cookies may break, so save these ones for later. Melt the chocolate in the microwave, stirring every 20 secs or so, or in a heatproof bowl suspended over a pan of gently simmering water. Spread a little chocolate over the surface of one side of each cookie. Roll out the fondant icing to the thickness of a 50p coin, and cut out your letters, then stick these to the cookies and set aside to dry. Alternatively, let the chocolate dry, then use an icing pen to write the name or word directly on the surface.
• To assemble the cake, stick one of your sponges to a cake stand or board with a little of the cream cheese icing. Use roughly half the icing to stack the remaining cakes on top, spreading a generous amount between each layer. Pile the remaining icing on top of the assembled cake, and use a palette knife to ease it over the edges, covering the entire surface of the cake. Tidy the plate with a piece of kitchen paper.
• If you have any leftover Oreos, break them into pieces and push these around the base of the cake. Insert the dried cookie cake toppers into the top of the cake and serve. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days, but bring back to room temperature for an hour or so before eating.
