These homemade Oreos are a delicious twist on the classic store-bought cookie, with a rich chocolate flavor and creamy filling.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract for filling
- 1.5 cups powdered sugar for filling
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and egg, mixing until well combined.
- In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
- Roll the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with your hand.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cookies are set. Allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
- To make the filling, beat the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Once the cookies have cooled, spread the filling on the flat side of one cookie and sandwich it with another cookie.
