Method
Choc Mint Oreo Bark
- Line a baking tray with baking paper then roughly chop Oreos into 1/8 pieces. Set aside.
- Place chocolate in a microwave-safe glass bowl and microwave on medium power in 30 second intervals, stirring in between until melted.
- Working quickly, add Peppermint Extract and 1/8 tsp of Green Food Colour to white chocolate, mix until combined then add Oreos to bowl, reserving some for decoration. Use a spatula to fold through until well combined then spread over baking paper to make an even layer approximately 0.5-1cm thick. Sprinkle with remaining Oreos and refrigerate until ready to use.
Red Velvet Cake
- Preheat oven to 160°C (fan forced). Grease and line a 20cm round springform pan (or square cake tin) with baking paper.
- In a mixer, cream butter, sugar, Red Food Colour (to desired shade) and Vanilla Bean Paste for 8-10 minutes until smooth and creamy. Gradually add eggs one at a time, beating between each addition.
- Sift flour, baking powder and cocoa over butter mixture, then add milk. Mix over low speed until just combined.
- Pour into prepared tin and bake for 90 minutes until an inserted skewer comes out clean. Allow to cool for 30 minutes in the tin, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Cheesecake Icing
- Chop softened butter and cream cheese and place in the bowl of a mixer. Mix on medium speed until combined, then increase speed and beat for 2-3 minutes until smooth, creamy and pale.
- Add Peppermint Extract, Vanilla Bean Paste and icing sugar, mixing until combined. Set aside.
- Place cream in a clean mixing bowl and beat until just thickened, being careful not to overbeat. Fold cream through cheesecake mixture. Refrigerate until ready to assemble.
Assembly
- Cut cake in half lengthways then into 3-4cm square pieces. Remove Oreo bark from refrigerator and roughly break up into larger and smaller crumble pieces in preparation for assembly.
- Begin assembly by placing a layer of cake in the base of a clear trifle bowl. Cover with a layer of cream cheese, followed by Oreo bark and raspberries. Repeat, withholding Oreo bark for the final layer and instead finishing with Glamour & Shine sprinkles and if desired, additional raspberries
