So when I was at the store trying to figure out what kind of cake to make my brother for his birthday.. It came to me. OREO CAKE!! And since I didn't have the recipe from KaceysKitchen.com, I had to wing it..<br /><div align="center">You will need:<br />-Chocolate cake mix<br />-2 things of White frosting<br />-Oreos</div><br /><div align="center">First thing I did was bake the cake. I used Devils Food cake but maybe a Dark Chocolate one might have been more Oreoy.. While the cake was baking and cooling, I used the food processor to turn 2 sleeves of Oreos into fine crumbs. I mixed the frosting with the crumbs of Oreos and frosted my cake. Then broke about 10 Oreos into half and placed them all over the top of the cake and done! Oreo cake that everyone loved :) </div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0uY8A-JQ2y5W8q-ehyphenhyphensMCytOUidQT5DsQtTS4JiTvf2iQ2TcugrCo5dgN_1RpVbg7ujwe76qH8wo6GNgOffXgU-XCYOG8xEdZ032GY2U61IEf_i0w1_f0fFQVQQjvYv6bApFTupTpiUXJ/s1600/DSC_0348.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5576061419001754658" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 286px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0uY8A-JQ2y5W8q-ehyphenhyphensMCytOUidQT5DsQtTS4JiTvf2iQ2TcugrCo5dgN_1RpVbg7ujwe76qH8wo6GNgOffXgU-XCYOG8xEdZ032GY2U61IEf_i0w1_f0fFQVQQjvYv6bApFTupTpiUXJ/s400/DSC_0348.JPG" border="0" /></a> {Sorry this is not a very good picture of the cake..
