Cake
Description
Delicious dessert for the whole family. Be sure to make this cake for your loved ones if they enjoy "Oreo" cookies. They taste very similar thanks to the chocolate layers, cream cheese, and chocolate. The ingredients listed in the recipe yield two cake layers, each of which should be sliced in half. I recommend using a 20-22 cm pan—the cake will turn out taller and more attractive. For decoration, you can use any chocolate cookies, chocolate sprinkles, or edible glitter.
