Oreo Cookie Cake

1 box Duncan Hines chocolate fudge cake
4 eggs
2/3 cup softened butter
1 cup milk

2 oz  Ghiradelli chocolate melts

8 oz cream cheese, room temperature

1/2 cup sugar

2 cups whipping cream

20 Oreo Sandwich Cookies, divided--I used a combination of Double Stuff and Birthday Cake Oreos

Mix the cake mix with the eggs, butter, and milk.  
Bake in 2--9" pans about 20-25 minutes, until done. 

Cool in pans for 5 minutes.

Invert onto wire racks, and let cool completely. 

When cake is cool, crush 12 Oreo cookies into 

coarse crumbs in a ziploc bag and set aside. 

In a large bowl, beat the whipping cream into soft peaks.  

Set aside.  

 Beat the cream cheese and sugar 

in a large bowl on medium speed.  

Gently stir in the whipped cream and crushed cookies. 

Cut one cake layer in half horizontally.  

Place one slice on a cake plate and spread with 1/4 of the filling.  Place the second slice on top and spread with more filling.  

Repeat, finishing with a layer of filling on top of the cake. 

Place the chocolate melts in small bowl.  

Microwave on high 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, 

until the chocolate is melted.  

Crush the remaining 8 cookies and sprinkle on top of the cake. 

Spoon the melted chocolate over next.  

Refrigerate until ready to serve.
