Oreo Cookie Cake

My mom had some people over to her house the other day and asked me to make this cake. I'm not sure where she came up with the recipe but it was SO good and SO easy! You could add almost any kind of crushed cookie to a boxed cake but the Oreo's were great! The frosting is wonderful, too! Sweet but not TOO sweet and sprinkled with extra Oreo's? Well...you can't go wrong there, can you?
