Triple Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cake

Back in August, the day after we moved back to California it was my birthday.  I have been wanting to make these cupcakes for a while now but I knew I didn't need to have that many lying around the house.  So being back home with family was a great opportunity.  Rather than taking the time to make a bunch of cupcakes I made it into one large cake.  It was just as tasty and much easier for a family dinner at home.  We found this cake tasted much better the 2nd day after the flavors had a chance to meld.  This cake is definitely a winner.


To make it as a layer cake I baked the cake in a 9 by 13 pan.  After it cooled I cut the cake in half.  
I spread the filling on top of one layer, placed the other layer on top and then frosted the whole cake with the cookie dough buttercream frosting. I mixed some chopped bittersweet chocolate into the buttercream frosting.  It was a little harder to spread but I really liked having the chunks in it and it was faster than pressing chocolate into the sides.  
I sprinkled the top with my leftover chopped bittersweet chocolate.  You can't have too much chocolate right?

I think I need to find a reason to make this cake again because it is a total winner.
