You want to make this?
Okay.
The oreo angel food cake is pretty easy to make. First, you take a box of angel food cake mix. Like so...Follow the directions on the box, cause really that might be the only right way to make an angel food cake. After you have mixed it up you want to "fold" in six crushed oreos (I like to crush them before I mix the mix. Sprinkle and fold.
Then put the cake mix into the angle food cake pan - or bundt pan.
Yum-o.
For baking follow the directions on the box (I told you this is pretty simple). When the cake is done you want to let it cool upside down. I find that 2-liter soda bottles work extremely well for this.
Let it completely cool. Don't worry, it's not going to tumble out of the pan...if so that's baker's error - you made that cake wrong (though that's next to impossible, but some people are gifted in accomplishing the next to impossible tasks of this world). Go back and try again.
While you're cake is cooling you want to crush up loads of oreos. I find that my Progressive Nut Chopper works really well with that. Well, as good as a nut chopper can do when "cream" is involved. You may need to help it out by shoving down the oreos with a spoon.
When you are done it should look like this.
When you are sure the cake is done (2 hours seems ample time). Squish it out of the pan (seriously, it's spongy just gently push and tug until the thing comes out), then take a can of white icing and frost it - don't worry if tiny chunks of cake come off in the icing, you won't be able to tell when the oreos are through with it.
Once it is frosting sprinkle your crushed oreos over the icing.
As you can see I like to sprinkle some to garnish the bottom of the cake as well. Use as much or as little as you like, that's your prerogative. OR you could skip that part all together, use some of the crushed ones that you WOULD HAVE mix INTO the cake and sprinkle the edge of the top. Then you can take about 9 or so cookies, cut them in half, and decorate the top. ...Again your prerogative.

See? Told you if was easy.
Why won't the cake fall out?
ReplyDeleteA bundt? oh, it's a cake! There's a hole in this cake. :) Everytime I see a bundt pan I think of that line.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why it won't fall out. It just sticks there, waiting for you to remove it. Want specifics Google it :P
ReplyDeleteI always think of "you fixed it!" when she walks in with the bundt cake later and she has a flower pot in the middle, someone off screen says, "You fixed it!" Such a funny movie.
