How do you stuff an Oreo inside a cookie?

Yesterday I made Oreo-stuffed chocolate-chip cookies. Two words: De. Lish. I will put the recipe below, but first of all, to answer the question. How do you get the Oreo INSIDE? Basically you make the cookie dough with extra flour so it holds together well, and mold the cookie dough AROUND the Oreo.   Form

Cake

I made a pretty cake. That’s all I have to say about that.

Man-Catcher Brownies

I got this recipe from Ladies’ Home Journal. It was accompanied by a “story behind the recipe” that was really cute. Short version: The brownies got their name when they caused the girl’s dad to propose to her mom. Now, I don’t know if they will actually catch you a man, but let me tell

Delicious Cookies with a Dumb Name

I got this cookie recipe from my sister-in-law. Although at first I was skeptical of any recipe that did not contain what I consider the ESSENTIAL cookie ingredient –chocolate chips– it turned out that I LOVE these!

Graham Cracker Cake

This is a little but of a Pinterest Monday cheat, since I searched this recipe out on pinterest instead of finding it there originally. But my neighbor told me her grandma used to make graham cracker cakes and it sounded delicious and fun. Plus my five year old daughter loves graham crackers with icing. Well,

Peanut Butter Cheese Ball

I pinned three different versions of this recipe over the course of the last six months. I guess I like peanut butter and chocolate, huh? Anyways, when I finally made it for my book club, this was delicious. I thought it might have been better as a cheesecake or brownie than as a cheese ball.

Cookie dough to eat? YES thank you!

I found a recipe on pinterest for cookie dough that is solely to EAT and not to bake. It has no eggs, so there is no fear of salmonella. Not that I’ve ever been particularly afraid of salmonella. See my traditional stance on the eating of raw dough here. But here’s the recipe: Cookie Dough
