Oreos.  What can I say about them?  You either love them or you really love them.  There’s no hating Oreos.

Who only eats 2 Oreo cookies?

What I find shocking about Oreos is that a serving is 2 cookies.  Have you ever only ate 2 Oreos?  Honestly?  Don’t lie to me.  I don’t think it’s possible to only eat 2 Oreos.  I think they have addicting like ingredients that make you eat at least 6. And that’s on a good day.

And then there’s the flavors of Oreos.  Remember when it used to be just the chocolate with vanilla cream?  Those were the days.  Now you have Golden Oreos, Birthday Cake Oreos (yes!), Gingerbread Oreos (YES!), Candy Corn Oreos (YES YES!) and more.  I have tried all the Oreos listed and think they are all delicious and that I did not only eat 2 of them.  Seriously, 2 of them?  I’ll never get over it.

So a few days ago I was craving Oreos but having a bag of Oreos in my house is a dangerous thing, especially when you ignore the serving size instructions.  So I decided to make my own Homemade Peanut Butter Oreos!

How to Make

In a bowl mix together cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt with a spoon. Note: You need 1/2 cup and 2 tablespoons flour. I know this is a very specific amount, but please follow. 🙂

In a separate large bowl using a hand mixer cream together butter, sugars, egg and vanilla.

Add dry mixture to wet mixture and continue to mix until combined.

Cover cookie dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. Please make sure to chill the dough, it’s a important step!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll the dough into large teaspoon size balls.

Place balls on cookie sheets that have been sprayed with nonstick spray, or put down silicone baking mats. Once balls are down use a spatula to gently flatten them down.

Bake cookies for 8 minutes.

Now it’s time to make the peanut butter filling!

In a bowl use a hand mixer combine the butter and peanut butter until creamy.

Add powdered sugar and milk and continue to mix until combined and a cream filling forms.

Take one cookie and put filling on it. Then take another cookie and put it on top. Flatten down with your hand slightly to make the cookie sandwich.

Now my favorite part – time to eat the cookies! 🙂

Small Batch Cookie Recipe

This is a small batch recipe treat.  I get intimidated seeing 30 Oreo cookies sitting in my kitchen so this batch makes 8 of them. I think 8 is a fair amount as it will only last a few days (hahahahaha) and you can share with the people you love the most.   You could also eat all 8 yourself and I totally won’t judge you for that.

Enjoy these homemade peanut butter oreos!

    Great post, Pamela! I’m with you on the Oreos. I can’t imagine all those other flavours you have available, but I can certainly get through more than 2 of the regular ones. Very dangerous indeed, especially if you dip them in tea or coffee, which I may or may not have tried.
    Absolutely love these homemade ones – so much more wholesome, and I do love that you only made 8, too. I made a chocolate cake recently which was a bit of a failure blog-wise but I ended up eating it all week and still had half left as hubby wouldn’t touch it. Grrrrr!

    Oh yummy in the UK we don’t get all the fancy Oreo’s just the original ones which I love but birthday cakes ones? I am intrigued. These here would suit me down to the ground not to many that I can make to much of a pig of myself but enough to satisfy that sweet tooth craving 😀
