Collect all the ingredients
Combine Vanilla cake mix, 3 eggs, 1 cup of water 1/3 cup of vegetable oil, 1 tsp of vanilla, and 16 chopped Oreos.
Pour the mixture into an 8 x 8 Handi-foil pan and bake it according to the box instructions.
Add butter and shortening to a mixing bowl.
Mix until smooth
Add in one cup of powdered sugar and vanilla.
Mix until fully combined, starting with a low speed and then increasing to medium speed.
Add in the remaining two cups of powdered sugar and the 2 tbsp of liquid and the gel food coloring
Mix starting on low and increasing the speed slowly to high.
Beat for 2-3 mins.
Use a spoon to test the silkiness of the frosting, if its not smooth add in one more tbsp liquid, then beat on medium-high for 4-5 more mins creating a fluffy and easy to pipe frosting.
Collect all the ingredients.
Add frosting to a piping bag fitted with tip 1M
Add 1-2 scoops of cake into the mason jar
Use the scooper to push it down.
Pipe frosting into the jar right on top of the cake.
Top with chopped chocolate chip cookies and chopped oreo cookies.
Add another scoop of cake, followed by frosting, then cookies
Repeat once more if there is space.
End with frosting.
Add two candy eyeballs and half a chocolate chip cookie
I decorated the top of the jar with a blue ribbon using glue dots to hold it in place.
Notes:
The tall mason jars that are pictured are 16 oz but that's the equivalent to about 4 servings per jar.
This can absolutely be done in smaller jars for parties/gatherings following the same steps as above.
