Easy Homemade Oreo Cookies
- Prepare the Dough:
- In a large bowl, combine all the cookie ingredients. Mix thoroughly, but if it’s too much to handle at once, try mixing in smaller batches until fully combined.
- Shape the Cookies:
- Roll the dough into balls. For more cookies, keep the balls smaller, but feel free to adjust to your preference. Place the balls on a baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
- Bake the Cookies:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until they’re set and slightly golden on the edges.
- Flatten the Cookies:
- Once out of the oven, gently flatten each cookie with a spatula or the back of a spoon. Let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Make the Icing:
- In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the icing ingredients until smooth and fluffy. Feel free to add extra flavoring (like mint extract) or food coloring for a fun twist, like mint green icing for a refreshing twist!
- Assemble the Cookies:
- Once the cookies have cooled, spread a generous amount of icing on the flat side of one cookie, then sandwich it with another cookie.
- Storage:
- Store the assembled cookies in the refrigerator or freezer for a chilled treat. Enjoy your homemade Oreos!
