Oreo Cookies

OrEo CoOkIeS


Ok so this picture does not do this cookie justice but it is the best I could do! I really don't know what to ever blog about and I was talking to my sister and she said that I should blog about crafts I do and things I bake....well I LOVE TO BAKE!!! so BINGO
This is a very simple recipe and I hope you enjoy!!!

2 Devils food cake mix
1 1/2 cup shortening
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla

Mix all of these ingredients together. (WARNING: the cookie dough is really thick and I have burnt up a few mixers just with these cookies so start out on low!!) Roll the dough into balls and cook at 350 for 12 mins (may very depending on oven!) Makes about 52 cookies

Now for the good stuff!!!

CrEaM cHeEsE fIlLiNg

1 8oz package of cream cheese
1/2 cup butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 lb powdered sugar (I never used this much!)

Mix the cream cheese and butter together. Add the vanilla. Begin adding powdered sugar until you like the taste. If you add the whole 1 lb then it makes a ton.
Spread the frosting between two cookies. Be sure to keep cookies refrigerated!!

ENJOY!
