Time 55m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 ¼ cups white sugar
3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup shortening
4 egg whites
¾ cup milk
¾ cup strawberry syrup
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
2 (1 ounce) squares semi-sweet baking chocolate (such as Baker's®)
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese (such as Philadelphia®), softened
⅓ cup white sugar
2 ½ cups whipped topping (such as Cool Whip®)
1 (3.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
½ cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Grease and flour three round 9-inch baking pans.
  • Sift flour, 2 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl; cut shortening into flour mixture until fine crumbs are formed.
  • Beat egg whites, milk, strawberry syrup, and vanilla extract into flour mixture with an electric mixer on low for 1 minute; increase to high until smooth and blended, about 2 more minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl frequently.
  • Pour batter into prepared baking pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Place chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl; heat on High in microwave until melted, about 1 minute. Stir chocolate until smooth.
  • Beat cream cheese and 1/3 cup sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on High until combined, 1 minute; stir chocolate into mixture until well mixed.
  • Gently fold whipped topping, pudding mix, and chocolate sandwich cookies into cream cheese mixture to form the filling.
  • Spread about 1/3 filling on top of one cake. Place second cake atop filling layer. Repeat with a filling layer, the third cake, and a final layer of filling on top.
