Homemade Oreos

Oreos have always been America's favorite cookie. Well, move over Nabisco, because you now have some serious competition. I got this recipe from a friend at work and I have yet to find a recipe that is tastier or easier.

This recipe can make as many sandwiches as you want; it all depends on how big you make them. We like to make them bite-sized. Just keep in mind that the cooking time will change a little depending on their size. We have found that each oven we have used cooks a little differently, so don't take our word on the cooking time. Keep an eye on the cookies while they are baking, when the cookies start to crack on top, they probably have about one minute left.

Once again, try this recipe out, send us pictures, and post comments. We would love to see your feedback. Enjoy!

Cookie Ingredients:
Makes about 12 Sandwiches 

1 Package of Devils Food Cake Mix
1/3 Cup of Oil
2 Eggs

Frosting Ingredients:

1 Pound of Powdered Sugar
4 Ounces (1/2 Package) of Cream Cheese
2 Tablespoons of Milk
2 Tablespoons of Butter
1/2 Teaspoon of Vanilla

Directions:

Mix ingredients together, the dough will be very stiff. Roll into balls on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 (F) for 8 or 9 minutes (Do not overcook!). Cookies by then will start to flatten and crack. If they are puffed up, pat them down just a little.


Start with a cookie sheet covered in parchment paper


Scoop out the dough.


For bite-sized portions, split in half and roll into balls.


Spread dough balls evenly apart on cookie sheet.


Bake for 8-9 min. Cool completely.


Make frosting. Put into zip-top bag, cut a small hole in the corner.
Pipe a dolup onto one cookie, and match with another.
