Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₂ cup Whole milk
• ¹⁄₂ cup Crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
• 1 cup Whipped cream
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Red food coloring
• ¹⁄₄ cup Powdered sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
5. Gently fold in the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies.
6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. In a mixing bowl, beat the whipped cream until stiff peaks form. Stir in the red food coloring.
10. Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread half of the whipped cream mixture over the top. Place the second cake layer on top and spread the remaining whipped cream mixture over the top and sides of the cake.
11. Dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar.
12. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
