Oreos are pretty much the best cookie ever made. I have to admit, I’ve gone out of my way to eat all the off-brand ones and see if they stack up, but they never do.
Only Oreos are as good as Oreos, right? Well, one woman on TikTok shared her recipe for making Oreos at home and she’s promising they’re better than the real deal.
Check out her recipe and how you can make them tonight for yourself!
A woman who goes by @ziaaaaamiaaaa on TikTok just revealed her recipe for Oreos, and I have to say, it’s pretty easy to whip up.
You definitely don’t have to be a pro when it comes to baking to try these out at all.
To make the Oreo cookies, you will need to get 1 cup of white sugar, 1 cup of butter (make sure it’s softened), 2 teaspoons of salt, 2 eggs, 2 cups of flour, 1/2 a teaspoon of baking soda, and 1 and 1/4 a cup of cocoa powder.
To make the Oreo filling, you will need 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 2 cups of powdered sugar, and 1/2 cup of butter, once again make sure it is softened.
Pro tip: if you aren’t quite sure how to soften butter, just leave it right on your counter for about 2 hours and it should be good to go!
First things first, make sure to set your oven to 325 degrees. Take out a baking sheet, grease it or butter it, then put it off to the side (you will use it later).
To start making the Oreo cookies, add your 1 cup of softened butter and your 1 cup of white sugar together. Mix it all up.
Mix in your 2 teaspoons of salt, 2 eggs, 2 cups of flour, 1/2 a teaspoon of baking soda, and 1 and 1/4 a cup of cocoa powder.
Now you’re ready to cut your cookies out of the dough! If you don’t have traditional cookie cutters on hand, you can get creative and use lids.
If you do have Oreos in your kitchen, you can then take one out and use it to stamp your cookies so they also say Oreo on them.
Put your cookies in the oven and bake them for 10 to 15 minutes. Make sure when you take them out they have cooled down before moving on to adding the filling in.
To get your filling ready, mix your 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 2 cups of powdered sugar, and 1/2 cup of softened butter together.
Next, take it out and add it to one of your cookies. Sandwich it together with a second cookie, and there you go, your very own Oreo.
If you don’t want to share these cookies I won’t blame you! Let me know in the comments below if you try this recipe out and if you think it’s just as good.
