Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease and flour two round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the white cake mix, water, oil, eggs, and vanilla.
  3. Mix at low speed just until the ingredients are moistened and combined.
  4. Increase mixer speed to high and beat for 2 minutes to aerate the batter.
  5. Gently fold in the crushed cookies, reserving 10 whole cookies for decoration.
  6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  7. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow cakes to cool in pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto wire racks to cool completely.
  9. For the frosting, combine 1/2 cup powdered sugar, shortening, vanilla, and egg whites in a small bowl.
  10. Beat until smooth and creamy. Gradually beat in the remaining powdered sugar until the frosting is thick and fluffy.
  11. Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread half the frosting over the top.
  12. Top with the second cake layer. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.
  13. Decorate by pressing the reserved whole cookies into the sides and top of the cake.
