Ingredients

  • 1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix
  • 1 and 1/4 cup water
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 jars chocolate icing
  • 24 Oreos

Instructions

Bake cake (Follow instructions on back of cake mix)

  • Set your oven to 350 degrees.
  • Prepare pan to keep cake from sticking by lightly coating bottom of pan with cooking spray or use shortening and a flour dusting.
  • Blend cake mix, water, oil and eggs in large bowl until moistened. Beat with a mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes or whisk by hand for 2 minutes. We recommend using oil
  • I bake mine for 22 minutes but it may vary oven to oven. Make sure you're checking on it periodically to prevent oven baking 
    [Bake Times: 13x9-inch pan, bake 31-35 min.; two 8-inch round pans, bake 31-35 min.; two 9-inch round pans, bake 29-33 min.; Bundt pan, bake 36-40 min.; 24 cupcakes (2/3 full), bake 18-22min.]
  • When toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, your cake is done. To remove cake from pan, allow to cool 10 to 15 minutes before removing. Cool cake completely before frosting.
  • Repeat process for both cake layers. 
  • Once the cake has cooled, stack the two layers and carve the cake into a heart shape to make sure both top and bottom layer are same shape. Set aside. 

Ice Cake

  • Spread first jar of icing on the top and sides of the bottom layer of cake until completely covered. 
  • Repeat this process for the top layer. 

Add Oreo Topping

  • Put your Oreos into a zip lock back and crush with a rolling pin. If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a canned good for the same effect. 
  • Dump the Oreos onto the top of the cake. 
  • Enjoy!
