HOMEMADE OREO COOKIES

These are super easy and dang yummy. The best part is that there is only 4 ingredients!!!Here's the low down:

1 Devil's Food Cake Mix
2 Eggs
2/3 C. Shortening
1 can Cream Cheese Frosting

Mix the first three ingredients together by spoon. If it becomes stiff and hard to mix, use your hands but keep in mind that this is a sticky dough. Using a 1" cookie scoop, place 30 cookie balls on a large sheet pan. Bake at 375 for 8 minutes. The cracks in the cookies should still be glistening when you take them out of the oven. DO NOT over bake you want them to stay soft. Cool completely before making the oreo sandwiches. Frost the back side of one cookie and top with another. Continue until all cookies are made. Let cookies sit out on counter for at least an hour to let the frosting set up. Store in an air tight container to maintain freshness. ENJOY!!!

TIP: to make frosting these easier, scoop your frosting into a quart sized ziplock baggie. Snip one corner of the baggie off and pipe your frosting on. Makes frosting this babies so much easier!!

  5. Trish you will have to let me know what you think! My 18 almost 19 year old can not get enough of these. Make sure you have extra milk on hand as they are great with a tall glass of cold milk.
