Ingredients
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 ¼ cups white sugar
- 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup shortening
- 4 egg whites
- ¾ cup milk
- ¾ cup strawberry syrup
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 (1 ounce) squares semi-sweet baking chocolate (such as Baker’s®)
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese (such as Philadelphia®), softened
- ⅓ cup white sugar
- 2 ½ cups whipped topping (such as Cool Whip®)
- 1 (3.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
- ½ cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®) (Optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Grease and flour three round 9-inch baking pans.
- Sift flour, 2 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl; cut shortening into flour mixture until fine crumbs are formed.
- Beat egg whites, milk, strawberry syrup, and vanilla extract into flour mixture with an electric mixer on low for 1 minute; increase to high until smooth and blended, about 2 more minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl frequently.
- Pour batter into prepared baking pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Place chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl; heat on High in microwave until melted, about 1 minute. Stir chocolate until smooth.
- Beat cream cheese and 1/3 cup sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on High until combined, 1 minute; stir chocolate into mixture until well mixed.
- Gently fold whipped topping, pudding mix, and chocolate sandwich cookies into cream cheese mixture to form the filling.
- Spread about 1/3 filling on top of one cake. Place second cake atop filling layer. Repeat with a filling layer, the third cake, and a final layer of filling on top.

Very delicious. Frosting is a little thick
Just did not go together well and the cake did not have a great texture. I may of overcooked it…..but if it was it did not help that the frosting was no to my likeing
The frosting is amazing. Will need more frosting if you want to cover the sides of the cake.
I made this exactly as stated in the recipe. I’m sorry it wasn’t for us – it turned out dry and we didn’t care for the flavor.
