lg package of lemon sandwich cookies (Oreos or store brand) you will need about 10 cookies for the filling

Take the rest of your lemon sandwich cookies and place into your food processor and process until they are fine crumbs. You can also place them in a sandwich bag and use a rolling pin to get them into fine crumbs. You want FINE crumbs, trust me.

ASSEMBLY!

Place your first layer of cake on your cake plate or serving plate. If it is really domed on top you can trip the dome off. Spread your pudding filling on top and then sprinkle over the roughly chopped cookies. Or if you combined them, spread the whole thing over.

Place your second cake, domed side up on top. Start icing your cake. I like to put a lot on top and work it down the sides. You don’t have to worry about perfection, as we will be covering the entire thing in cookie crumbs! Place your crumbs on a large baking sheet, take some in your hand and carefully press them into the sides and top of the cake. You have to find what works best for your. You can always clean the crumbs off when you are done but give them a good press into the icing.

When you have covered the whole cake in crumbs, feel free to leave it as is, place a lemon twist or slice on top or use a few cookies and some fresh whipped heavy cream to decorate the top. The choice is yours!

Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.

ENJOY!
