Chocolate-Covered Oreo cake

This cake is delicious!  This is the second time I made it and it is still so yummy!  The kids were so excited to have it again.  It didn't turn out so pretty but my efforts to reduce calories were successful.  I would recommend making it for a large group since you will finish what ever is left.  Consider yourself warned!

Chocolate-covered Oreo Cake, serves 12

(Adapted from Hungry Girl and Kraft Recipes)

Cake:

1 box moist type devil's food cake mix

1 cup fat free plain Greek yogurt

1 cup water

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.  Combine the dry cake mix and yogurt in a medium mixing bowl.  Slowly add 1 cup water.  Divide the batter evenly into greased 8 inch round cake pans.  Bake according to the times listed on the cake mix box.  Cool on wire racks.

Ganache:

2/3 cup semi-sweet or 60% cocoa chips (I loved the dark chocolate!)

1/4 cup butter

Combine in a small glass bowl.  Microwave on high for 2 minutes or until butter is melted.  Stir until smooth and let cool.

Filling:

8 oz. softened cream cheese (I substituted fat-free.)

1/2 cup sugar

2 cups whipped topping

12 Oreo cookies, coarsely crushed

Beat the cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl.  Fold in the whipped topping and Oreos.  Place one layer of the cake on a plate.  Spread the filling on the bottom layer.  Place the top layer on the filling.  Smooth the filling on the side.  Pour the ganache on top.  If desired, add additional Oreos on top for decoration. Store in the fridge until ready to serve.
