How To Make s'more oats layer cake

  • 1
    In a medium jar, combine 1 cup old fashioned oats and 1 cup graham cracker crumbs, the chopped Hershey's bars and miniature marshmallows, 1 cup whole milk, and 2 tablespoons malted milk powder. Whisk well with a fork until blended.
  • 2
    Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours.

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat two 9" round cake pans with baking spray. Divide crumbled fudge grahams between both cake pans.

    In a large bowl, combine cake mix, water, vegetable oil, eggs and remaining malted milk powder; beat on medium speed for 40 seconds.

    Meanwhile, heat the margarine in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add remaining old fashioned oats and cane sugar. Saute for 5 minutes or until the oats are tender. Stir in 1 cup graham cracker crumbs. Remove from heat.
