Red Velvet and Oreos are two of the best desserts, so why pick one when you can have both in one delectable cookie sandwich? The homemade Oreo filling never fails to leave a gooey, fluffy, sweet trail around your mouth along with crumbs from the moist, chewy red velvet cookie. Enough of that packaged cookie business, it’s time to get creative.
Red Velvet Oreos
Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Mix flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix butter and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy. Next, add in an egg and red food coloring, and mix until incorporated. Lastly, mix in the dry ingredients until combined.
Shape the dough into balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place the dough balls 3-inches apart on parchment paper. Then flatten out the dough balls evenly with your fingers.
Bake for 8 minutes until the edges start setting. Then, let cool completely.
Mix powdered sugar, vegetable oil, butter, water, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
Place filling in a pastry bag with a 1/2 inch round tip. Then, turn over half of the cookies and spread about a tablespoon of filling. Lastly, place the remaining cookies on top of the frosted cookies to make a sandwich.
