Funfetti Oreo Birthday Cake

This cake is simply amazing! From the Birthday Cake Oreos to the Cheesecake Frosting and it takes no time to whip up. The hardest part is waiting for the cakes to cool before you frost them. A tip for cooling cakes after they come out of the oven leave them in the pans for 5 minutes then wrap two layers of plastic wrap around them and put in the fridge for an hour, then you're ready to frost.

Okay let's get baking!!

CAKE INGREDIENTS
- 1 Box Funfetti Cake Mix
- 1 Package Birthday Cake Oreos
-Butter
- Milk
- 2 Extra eggs then what the cake mix calls for.
-2 Cups Sprinkles

FROSTING INGREDIENTS
- 1 Tub Cheesecake Filling (by the cream cheese)
- 2 Cups Powdered Sugar
- 1 Teaspoon vanilla
- 7 Birthday Cake Oreos

DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare two cake pans either with baking spray or layer bottom with parchment paper and butter sides.
2. Prepare the cake mix, you can follow the box instructions or do it my way which makes a very moist cake. Instead of oil use butter, instead of water use milk and add 2 extra eggs to the mix. Leave batter in the bowl.
3. Crush 6 Oreos and fold into cake batter.
4. Divide batter between two cake pans.
5. Bake for 34-38 min. Until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
6. Let cool before frosting!!!

FROSTING DIRECTIONS
1. Put 1 Cup powdered sugar in bowl, put 1/2 the tub Cheesecake filling then put the other cup powdered sugar and then the rest of the cheesecake filling.
2. Add the vanilla.
3. Mix until smooth.
4. Put 1/3 of the batter in a separate bowl for the cake filling. Crush 7 Oreos and add to the 1/3 batter.
5. Spread the 1/3 batter over one cake and place the other cake on top.
6. Use remaining frosting to cover the cake. Decorate with sprinkles and remaining Oreos.

I was afraid this cake wouldn't be very good by my Co-workers ate it up. It smells amazing and it's so colorful and fun.

Pumpkin Oatmeal





It just wouldn't be a perfect Fall morning without some pumpkin oatmeal. As we all know I'm not a big pumpking person, so for me to actually really like this oatmeal says a lot! It's SUPER good, but I'm not gonna lie the peanut butter in it makes all the difference. 
Now if you're a big pumpkin lover, you can opt to leave the peanut butter out. Try it without first you can always put the peanut butter in if you change your mind. 
Let's get eating!

- 1/3 Cup Quick Cooking Rolled Oats
