Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of quick-cook oats, stir, cover, and remove from heat. Allow to soak for about 20 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, ½ teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon of ground nutmeg. Set aside.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat 1 cup of unsalted butter with 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 cup of brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add 3 eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Incorporate 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 1 cup of sour cream until well blended.
  5. Fold in the soaked oats, then gradually add dry ingredients, stirring just until no flour streaks remain.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Divide the batter among three greased 8-inch round cake pans. Bake for 20-22 minutes.
  7. Beat 1 cup of unsalted butter on medium speed until fluffy. Gradually add 4 cups of powdered sugar, alternating with ¼ cup of heavy cream and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  8. Layer the cooled cakes on a serving platter, spreading frosting between each layer. Apply a thin crumb coat and chill briefly.
  9. Heat ½ cup of heavy cream until simmering. Pour over 1 cup of white chocolate chips and stir until smooth to create the glaze.
  10. Drizzle the glaze over the chilled cake and garnish with crumbled oatmeal cream pie cookies.
