Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
- Stir together sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt for cake in a large bowl. Add milk, oil, eggs, and vanilla; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Stir in boiling water; batter will be thin. Pour batter into the prepared pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the middles comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes in the pans. Invert carefully onto wire racks and let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- Prepare whipped cream by beating cream, sugar, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl on high speed until soft peaks form in the mixture. Stir in crushed cookies.
- Frost the cooled cake cake with whipped cream, adding some in between layers. Place cake on a paper-lined surface. Chill any unused whipped cream.
- Bring cream for glaze to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Remove from the heat and add chocolate chips; stir until melted.
- Spread glaze over the cake, allowing some to flow down over the sides. Decorate the top of the cake with remaining crushed cookies. Pipe any remaining whipped cream on the top and around the edges of the cake.
