To make this delicious cake, you will need the following ingredients:

For the cake:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water

For the frosting:

- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1/2 cup crushed Oreo cookies
To make the cake, preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add in the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined. Stir in the boiling water, and mix until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans, and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
To make the frosting, beat the softened butter in a large mixing bowl until creamy. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and peppermint extract, and beat until the frosting is smooth and fluffy. Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies.
Once the cakes have cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of frosting over the top of the cake, and then place the second cake layer on top. Spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake. Garnish with additional crushed Oreo cookies, if desired.
