Oreo Cookies And Cream Pancake Cake Recipes

Steps:

• For the whipped cream: Whip the heavy cream with a handheld electric mixer in a medium bowl until just beginning to visibly thicken, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla and continue to whip on medium speed until the cream just holds a stiff peak, 30 to 45 more seconds. Take care not to over whip the cream or it will begin to separate. Keep the cream chilled in the refrigerator.
• For the pancakes: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with two kitchen towels stacked on top of each other and place in the oven. This will keep your cooked pancakes warm.
• Sift the flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a large bowl.
• Whisk the milk, butter, eggs and vanilla in a separate medium bowl. Whisk the egg mixture into the flour mixture until halfway combined. Fold the crushed cookies into the batter until just combined (it's OK if there are some lumps). Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush with butter. Ladle 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, spreading it into a 4-to-5-inch round; repeat to make a second pancake. Cook until the pancakes are golden on the bottom and bubbly on top, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Flip the pancakes and cook until the undersides are golden and the batter is cooked through, 30 seconds to 1 minute more. Transfer the pancakes to the baking sheet in the oven, tucking them between the kitchen towels. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Assemble the pancake stacks: Place one pancake down on a plate. Spread 3 tablespoons of the whipped cream over the pancake followed by more crushed cookies as desired. Place another pancake on top of that followed by another 3 tablespoons of whipped cream and more crushed cookies as desired. Top the stack with one more pancake for a total of 3 pancakes. Drizzle the stack with chocolate sauce, top with 2 more tablespoons of whipped cream and more crushed cookies.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Grease bottom and side of 8-inch round pan with shortening; lightly flour.

Beat on medium speed 1 minute, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in broken cookies. Spread in pan.
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until cake springs back when touched lightly in center. Cool 10 minutes. Remove from pan to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Cut cake horizontally in half. Place bottom layer on serving plate. Spread with frosting. Top with remaining layer.
• In small microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips and shortening uncovered on High 10 to 15 seconds or until chocolate can be stirred smooth and is thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle chocolate over top of cake. Sprinkle with coarsely broken cookies.
