I know I ask a lot of really lame questions, but has anyone baked crushed up Oreo's mixed in cake?
I want to do this for a customer, but I don't want to waste cake if it comes out weird.
Why don' t you use the crushed oreos in the filling?
I am going to, but I thought I'd also try them in the cake...
I have never tried this in a cake before, but I have done that with a cheesecake and it turned out good! HTH
What are you going for by putting them in the cake?
It seems like it might be a weird texture. But I'm VERY sensitive about texture. I think having them in the filling would be good enough. Hmmm.
I vote go for it! I made a death by choco cake recently...SO YUMM! In the batter I put choco chips...very nice surprise in each bite.
it's WONDERFUL! i've been doing that since i was a kid -my friends used to request it. made it last weekend actually! i just used about half a bag of them. you can either wack the heck out of them with a rolling pin or roughly chop w/a knife. just fold them in. makes good cupcakes too! try it. you'll love it!
I bet it would be good. After reading the menu of a cupcake shop that had a Cookies and Cream cupcake with a whole oreo baked in the center, I had to try it myself. The oreo softened a bit, and was so yummy!

I sure hope you mentioned this in the ever growing cupcake thread, though it just may put Melvira over the edge!!
There is a great recipe on Oprah's web site -- Outrageous Oreo brownies. The Oreo's are great in the brownies. YUMMMMY! I would imagine that Oreo cookies would be great in cake too! Just leave them in semi-large chunks. If the cookies are reduced to crumbs, you just will not notice them. Now I need some chocolate!
Thanks for all of your input!! I will definitely add them to my cake batter. But I'm bummed, after counting out 20 for the filling and 20 for the cake I only have 10 left for me!

Oh, that is just SWELL guys!! Pick on the fat pregnant girl!! You've been discovered, you can't just sneak off into another thread and make fun of me!! And it's not my fault that this baby is already a foodie!!! It's ok... I've been seriously jonesing for good stuff lately!
Ok, but seriously, I can control myself around Oreos unless we're talking double stuffs... or those new peanut butter ones. Try using those in a cake. In a chocolate cake. With chocolate peanut butter icing. And maybe I get some on my finger. Well, now I'm gonna have to lick it off. No sense in wasting it.
Thank you! I'm dying! I don't have everything quite ready yet, but I can't wait to hold him! And for his big brother to hold him too!!

Dang, got caught but now you have me licking my fingers just thinking about that combination. I am a peanutbutter nut !!
I've done it before and I've added the crushed oreos to the BC to use as a filling!!
It's great!!

Oh my gosh! and I'm cutting out sweets in my diet. How could you do this to me? Maybe I'll try this combo for my dad's birthday. Noooooo, I really want to try this cupcake!!!!!!
Oreos in chocolate cake or vanilla? ...Just trying to get the flavor right for when I imagine myself eating them! Sounds delish either way, but I like the sound of Melvira's peanut butter oreo with peanut butter bc!
((drooling))
heathercarnold: woudl you mind sharing your cheesecake recipe? My husband and I love cheesecake and oreos.
Melvira: That recipe sounds yummy. I'm going to have to try it! Don't feel bad, I can't pass double stuffed oreos. At least you have an excuse...your pregnant! But I might be joining your pregnant train...just waiting to find out...

But I might be joining your pregnant train...just waiting to find out...
Oh, oh, oh!!! YAY!! Come on... be knocked up!!! WOOT WOOT!
Well Melvira, I'm not on the pregnant train. :'( A week and a half late, go buy a test, wake up th next morning, and I have a friend. Ugh!

That always happens!!! What is with that?!?! It's like a stress thing or something! Oh well, there is always next month! Keeping my fingers crossed!!
Ok, this is a going to a strangely mixed post BUT...1.) can you freeze the cupcakes with the whole oreo baked into it? 2.) I am almost 36 weeks pregnant and have been in and out of labor for 3 days now! UGGH! DO you guys recall the character that Tim Conway played in the Carol Burnett Show who shuffled everywhere he went? That is me! OK, I have completely dated myself by talking about the Carol Burnett Show! -Meg
It took DH and I six months before we decided to just stop trying - we were going to actively try again in a few months. The minute we made the decision to stop we got preggers! I know it's a stress thing. For our second baby we didn't worry about it all and got preggers the first month.
My best!
MacsMom first of all, sorry for changing your post some. Have your tried the oreo thing yet? How did it work? Keep me posted.
My husband and I tried for 6 months with our first then gave up and got pregnant. Just thought I might have actually been this time cause I was so late. Were really not trying. Oh well all in God's time.
For Sure! Here's a link to a pic from Pillsbury showinig a cookies and cream cake.
