Homemade Oreos

 

 

 They are finally back!

Monthly Inspiration Challenges are back!

 Melissa of Simply Sweets by Honeybee 

and Stephanie of Ellie's Bites Decorated Cookies, have 

decided to bring them back!

I am so excited!

 

This month's theme is

JUNK FOOD!

 

They changed it up a little this time, and are

wanting not just decorated cookies, but anything

related to the theme.

 

The options are endless!

Cakes

Cookies

Crafts

Jewelry

ANYTHING!

 

I had a hard time deciding what to do, but I knew I wanted to

step out of my comfort zone, away from decorated cookies.

 

Long before I started doing decorated cookies, Oreos were what I

would pack in Collin's lunch box everyday.  Three Oreos, not 1, not 2, but 3!

And they HAD to be Oreos, no knock offs for my son, he wanted, no

demanded the real thing.  And regular Oreos, not double stuffed, or seasonal

colors or flavors.

 

 

 

So, after looking around online, I found a

Homemade Oreo recipe that I thought would be close to the

real thing, in looks and taste.

 

I used a recipe from My Kitchen Addiction, ,

 using Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate Cocoa

 and for the filling, I used Melissa's from

Simply Sweets by Honeybee

OMG, so yummy Butter Cream Icing.

I did leave out the almond flavoring, and increased

the vanilla to 1 tablespoon.

 

Not only did they turn out wonderful,

but they are Collin Approved,

he took 3 in his lunch box everyday this week,

and asked me to make more this weekend.

 

 

  

 

I have a few left over, and even after a week, they are

still crazy yummy!
