For goodness sake, I made a Homemade Foreo!

I made an Oreo like cookie.

Honestly.

What’s better than a homemade Oreo cookie? An over-sized, soft, chewy Oreo cookie…and a foot rub, but the foot rub is totally optional. 😉

It does not taste exactly like a Oreo, but it’s super good.

I decided to make the cookies soft and chewy instead of crisp. They are sweet and soft and fabulous.

I think they might be a tiny bit evil, as they are quite addictive.

I found the recipe here Clockwork Lemon.

I did not fiddle with the cookie recipe at all.

Shocking, I know.

I made really big cookies, ones that are so filling that one is more than enough, so I got fewer than 40 cookies. I got about 20 cookies.

Here is the ingredient list:

I found the recipe here Clockwork Lemon.

makes 40 small cookies or 20 large cookies

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened Dutch process cocoa (if using regular cocoa add an extra tsp of baking soda)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) room-temperature, unsalted butter
1 large egg

Go. Try. Make your very own Foreos. (faux Oreos)

I’m off to take a sick child to the doctor. Hope your day is a wonderful one!
