Instructions
- Cook the oats: In a medium saucepan, bring 2 1/2 cups water to a boil. Stir in 2 cups of quick-cook oats and let them cook for about 1 minute. Remove from heat and let them cool.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour your cake pans.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and baking soda.
- Cream the butters and sugars: In a stand mixer, cream together the room-temperature unsalted butter with the granulated and brown sugars until fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition, then pour in the vanilla extract.
- Incorporate the cooled oats and sour cream until combined.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients gradually until just combined.
- Pour the batter evenly into prepared cake pans and bake for about 30–35 minutes.
- Cool the cakes in the pans for about 10 minutes, then turn them out onto wire racks to cool completely.
- Make the frosting: Combine softened unsalted butter, powdered sugar, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and vanilla bean paste. Mix until fluffy.
- Assemble the cake: Place one layer on a serving plate, spread frosting on top, then place the second layer on top and coat with remaining frosting.
- Decorate with the heavy cream glaze and oatmeal cream pie cookies.
