Weekend Treat

Oh, with everything going on around here, we needed something a little chocolate-y. It's been crazy the past few days and so a few homemade Oreo's never hurt anyone.

Kathy's Homemade Oreo's

For the dough:

+1 Package of Devil Food Cake Mix

+2 eggs

+1/2 cup of oil

For the frosting:

+1 stick of butter (1/2 cup)
+8 oz. of cream cheese

+3-4 cups of powdered sugar

+1 tsp of vanilla extract

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix dough ingredients and roll dough into little balls. Place on cookie sheet and bake for about eight minutes. Remove cookies and cool. Place the cookies in the freezer for at least 15 minutes to harden in order to frost. 

For the frosting, cream the butter and cream cheese together. Add powdered sugar slowly until you reach the right consistency. Don't forget to add the vanilla. 

Then my favorite part, since I'm not fancy--I just take a table spoonful of the frosting and put it on a cookie and then smash another cookie on top.

There you have it! Hope you're enjoying your weekend.
