INSTRUCTIONS
For the Cake
1.
Butter and flour three six inch pans. I use
cake strips on my pans for more even baking as well. Preheat oven to 340F
2.
In a standing mixture fitted with a paddle
attachment, beat butter until light and fluffy.
3.
Sift the dry ingredients together in a large
bowl.
4.
Beat the dry ingredients into the butter
until well incorporated, scrape the bowl at least once.
5.
Beat the wet ingredients together in a medium
bowl.
6.
Add the wet to the butter mixture and mix
until just combined. Fold in the crushed Oreos at the very end and mix until
just combined.
7.
Divide the mixture evenly into the cake pans
8.
Bake at 340 for about 25-30 minutes or until
the centers are springy to the touch.
For the Buttercream
1.
Beat the butter until light and fluffy. Add
the confectioners' sugar and cream and mix.
2.
Reserve about a cup of the buttercream for
the white dollops. Which will be piped with an 869 tip.
3.
Mix in the crushed Oreos into the large batch
of buttercream.
For the Ganache
1.
Melt chocolate and cream together on low
heat. Whisk together and set aside. You might need to add more or less cream to
achieve the desired consistency.
For the Assembly
2.
Oreo buttercream goes between each layer as
well as a swirl of chocolate. Don't go overboard with the ganache as it will
overpower the other flavors.
3.
Coat outside with buttercream and smooth.
4.
Add a skirt of crushed Oreos at the bottom of
the cake.
5.
Pour the ganache on top and allow to drip.
Smooth top with an offset spatula.
6.
Pipe white buttercream dollops on top with an
869 tip
