These bad boys just came out of the oven...Mmmm
I LOVE Strawberry cake mix, it is my absolute favorite! So when I found this recipe on Pinterest, I knew I would have to make them. The last 8 minutes have been the longest 8 minutes of my life. Want your own Valentine Oreo? Here's How! Only 4 ingredients if you cheat like I did.
Strawberry Valentine Oreo Cookies
Ingredients:
1 pkg of strawberry cake mix
2 eggs
3/4 cups shortening
Frosting (I used Butter Cream flavor)
Directions:
-Mix cake mix, eggs, and shortening until well blended. The dough will end up really thick!
- Roll into balls (make sure they are close in size so that your cookies will be easier to assemble). I used a cookie dough scoop!
-Place dough onto ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes.
-Immediately transfer cookies to cooling rack.
-Once cookies are completely cooled spread frosting between two cookies, smoosh together and enjoy!
If you would like to make your own cream filling. Here's how:
Ingredients:
8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 stick of butter, softened
2 tsp. vanilla
4 c. powdered sugar
Directions:
-Mix all ingredients until smooth until smooth.
I chose to use store bought frosting because, well let's be honest I'm pregnant, I forgot my sticky note that said "Barbee get cream cheese" and well, that's a main ingredient, and I had store bought in the cabinet:) They taste just fine, but I'm sure the home made would be delicious too!
Why are you still reading my boring blog...GO...go make cookies!!
