Instructions

- Place the chocolate cake on a serving plate and spread with a thin layer of ganache.
- Set the chilled cheesecake on top of the cake layer.
- Spread the Oreo white chocolate mousse evenly over the cheesecake and chill until firm.
- Frost the top and sides with whipped chocolate ganache.

- Pipe the remaining ganache on top and decorate with whole Oreo cookies.
- Refrigerate at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before slicing and serving.
