Gluttonously Unnecessary

It has been awhile since my last post. Life seems to have gotten in the way of baking the past few weekends! I have had some time to catch up on work/de-stress over this vacation, so it was back into the kitchen. Today I wanted to try a recent recipe I found on a blog I follow. It isn't a Mary recipe, but I felt like it needed to be posted because it was so absolutely unnecessary and gluttonous...Mary would be proud.

Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies!
2 sticks softened butter
3/4 Cup packed light brown sugar
1 Cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla
3 1/2 Cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
10 oz bag chocolate chips
1 bag Oreo Cookies
1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.   In a stand or electric mixer cream butter and sugars until well combined.  Add in eggs and vanilla until well combined.
2.  In a separate bowl mix the flour, salt and baking soda.  Slowly add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips until just combined.  Using a cookie scoop take one scoop of cookie dough and place on top of an Oreo Cookie.  Take another scoop of dough and place on bottom of Oreo Cookie.  Seal edges together by pressing and cupping in hand until Oreo Cookie is enclosed with dough.
  
Place onto a parchment or silpat lined baking sheet and bake cookies 9-13 minutes or until cookies are baked to your liking.  Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack. 
Makes about 2 dozen VERY LARGE Cookies 



 

Two Words - Gluttonously AWESOME!
