I LOVE salty sweet treats. I mow down salty sweet treats. These Oreos…. are salty sweet.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n You can find the original recipe here,<\/a> and my slight alterations below.<\/p>\n Homemade Oreos For the cookies:<\/p>\n For the filling:<\/p>\n Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n 1. For the cookies- Combine the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl, and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy.\u00a0 Add the egg\u00a0and vanilla, and beat until well incorporated.<\/p>\n 2. Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the creamed mixture, beating on the lowest speed.\u00a0 Continue to mix on the lowest setting until the dry ingredients are just incorporated.<\/p>\n 3. Divide the dough in\u00a0half, and shape into two discs.\u00a0 Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate\u00a0for 1 hour.\u00a0When the dough is chilled, preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.\u00a0 Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.\u00a0 Set aside.<\/p>\n 4. Taking only one portion of dough out of the refrigerator at a time, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.\u00a0 Roll the dough to 1\/8 \u2013 1\/4-inch thickness.\u00a0 Use a cookie cutter (approximately 2 inches in diameter) to cut out cookies and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.<\/p>\n 5.\u00a0Bake the cookies for 12 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 6. Once the cookies are cooled, prepare the filling.\u00a0 Combine the softened butter, half and half (or milk), vanilla, and salt and beat until combined.\u00a0 The mixture may be a bit lumpy, but will come together.\u00a0 Add the powdered sugar gradually, approximately 1\/2 cup at a time, until the filling comes together.\u00a0 It will be slightly stiffer than a cupcake frosting.\u00a0Transfer the filling to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.\u00a0 Pipe the filling onto half of the cookies, and top with the remaining cookies to form cookie sandwiches.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
