DID YOU KNOW OREOS ARE VERY EDUCATIONAL? THEY CAN ACT AS AN ACRONYM TO TEACH STUDENTS ABOUT OPINION WRITING! SEE MY COOKIE BASKET BELOW! OF COURSE, HOMEMADE OREOS ARE ALSO PERFECT FOR THIS LESSON…
OREO COOKIE:
BEAT:
2C. SUGAR
2C. BUTTER
ADD:
2 EGGS
2 TSP. VANILLA
ADD:
5C. FLOUR
1C. COCOA POWDER
1 TSP. SALT
ONCE A DOUGH FORMS, ROLL OUT, CUT ROUND SHAPES AND BAKE on A PARCHMENT LINED SHEET AT 350 8-10 MINS DEPENDING ON SIZE. COOKIES CAN BE FROZEN AT THIS POINT AND FILLED ANOTHER DAY!
FILLING:
1 CUP SOFT BUTTER
3 1/3 CUPS CONFECTIONERS SUGAR
1 TSP. VANILLA
1 T. HEAVY CREAM
BEAT ON HIGH UNTIL FLUFFY
SPOON SOME FILLING ONTO ONE HALF AND TOP WITH A SECOND COOKIE TO MAKE AN OREO SANDWICH. FOR DOUBLE STUF LOVERS, ADD EXTRA FILLING. I HAD LEFT OVER FROSTING FROM THIS BATCH TO USE FOR ANOTHER USE.
MADE APPROX 55 SANDWICH COOKIES-for the heart impression, lightly press in a cookie cutter before baking the cookies.

I see you’re using a simple ABC for the filling. Any idea what they actually use for the filling in those things?
