Homemade Oreo Cookies - Amazing, but Can Lead to DEATH

So the 8th graders made the fabulous homemade oreo cookies. Happiness followed, and then a bunch of groans as they realized that they had eaten too much. One student even decided that she wanted to lick the bowl with all of the extra frosting. Needless to say, she pretty much ROLLED out of my classroom. Yes, the cookies are rich, but boy, are they good! Enjoy the recipe below!




Homemade Oreo Cookies

Ingredients:

Cookies:

1 box chocolate cake mix

½ C. oil

2 eggs


Frosting:

1/4 c. butter

1/2 pkg. cream cheese, softened

2 c. powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla


· Preheat oven to 350

· Combine cake mix, oil and eggs

· Stir until all moist

· Scoop out by medium spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheet

· Bake for 8-10 minutes

· Let cool on baking sheet for about 2 minutes

Frosting:

1. In a medium sized bowl, add softened cream cheese and margarine. Beat with an electric mixer until creamy.

2. Add vanilla and blend until combined. Slowly add powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, until creamy and completely combined.

3. As soon as cookies are completely cooled, frost one cookie with the cream cheese frosting. Place another cookie on top of the frosted cookie.

4. Eat and enjoy!

  2. Hey Jayni, this blog is super cute. One thing I noticed though--You've taught the kids all about healthy eating with the food pyramid, and yet indulge them with tastey treats that basically don't have no nutritional value;). LOL. Teach them how to prepare asparagus...
