i made this cake for my roommate's birthday and it turned out great! The oreos and and whip cream was a great mix. The only thing that was hard was spreading the whip cream because it melted so fast. but other than that it was great!

This cake is so good every in my family liked it. And yes I would do it again. It's something diffrent from all the other cakes. So that's why I recommend you to try it and just see your family's face when they try it. Of course not every kid will like it but you still have to try and maybe you too can impress your family. I hope you try it. Good luck!!
