So i am baking for the first time an Oreo heart shaped Cake. I looked up the recipe from various people and went with of course the one Betty Crocker stated!
First thing you need to do is make sure you have: a vanilla cake mix & its ingredients which is usually eggs, water and oil, Oreo Cookies (i used the original flavor), amd for the frosting: powdered sugar, butter or margarine and milk. Additionally, if you choose to decorate the cake with frosting, make sure to have your pipping bag and star tip.
So.. you will be preparing the vanilla cake mix as directed on the box. You will need to crush your oreo cookies. I used 3 packs which contained 4 cookies in them. After crushing the cookies, stir them into the cake batter and pour into your baking pan and put that baby in the oven!
Next, prepare your icing. I followed a Vanilla Buttercream frosting which indicated: 3 cups powdered sugar, 1/3 cup butter or margarine (soften), 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla & 1-2 tablespoons of milk. Mix the ingredients on a medium speed & add milk generously.
When cake is finished baking, take it out to cool and then frost the cake to your desires. Also, you can garnish the cake with remaining oreo cookies.
Sidenote: if your frosting is too thick, add drops at a time of milk. If it is too thin add a small amount of powdered sugar.
Happy baking!!!!
