Gluten Free Oreo Cake Recipe

Ingredients:

• One gluten free chocolate cake mix (Pamela’s or Namaste are good, Namaste is dairy free)
• One container prepared frosting (Gluten and Dairy free…we used Pillsbury milk chocolate flavor, which interestingly enough contains no milk!)
• One container Cool Whip (or other whipped topping)
• 10 Gluten Free Sandwich Cookies (we used K toos, best darn OREO substitue ever!)
• 1/2 bag gluten free chocolate chips (we used Sunspree).

Directions:

1. Follow the directions on the cake mix, and bake the cake in two 9 inch rounds.
2. Remove from pan and let cool.
3. While the cake is baking, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave.
4. Once the cake is done, frost the sides and top of the first layer of cake.
5. Crush the cookies in a plastic bag (or pulse in a food processor) until you have coarse crumbs.
6. Mix the cookie crumbs in with the whipped topping, and spread the topping over top of the first cake.
7. Carefully set the second layer on top of the first, and frost the sides and top of that layer.
8. Take your cookie topper out of the freezer, and carefully peel the wrap off the bottom.
9. Quickly lay the topper on top of the cake, and press down gently to secure it in the frosting.
