Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups flour
3 tsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoons tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup melted butter
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup buttermilk
3 tsp. red food coloring
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. apple cider vinegar
2 egg yolks
10 chocolate sandwich cookies, such as Oreos
8 oz cream cheese

Steps:

Set your oven to 400°F Divide the sandwich cookies and split the cream filling from the wafers. Reserve wafers for later use. Cream the sandwiches cookie cream fillings with 8oz of cream cheese, until smooth. Scoop 12 1-tbsp mounds onto a greased baking sheet, and freeze for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl, and mix to combine. Add butter, sugar, buttermilk, food coloring, vanilla, vinegar and egg yolks, and mix until a smooth batter forms. Divide the batter evenly in a greased muffin tin and press one frozen cream filling into the center of each. Use the back of a spoon to smooth the batter over the top, so the filling is completely covered. Top the cakes with the reserved cookie wafers and bake for 12 minutes, until cake is set and filling is runny and melted.
