Homemade Oreo Cookies

Hooray! We are almost to the weekend! And guess what? My kids get out of school in less than a month! Can you believe it? Hmmm, maybe that question was more for me! Ha!

Today I am sharing a super easy and yummy cookie recipe! The best part {or maybe not} is I usually make them sometime after I have made my delicious White Chocolate Raspberry Bundt Cake!  The frosting stays really good in the fridge {in an air tight container} for about a week so you have time to finish the cake before you dive into these yummy cookies! 😉 So without further adieu…

  1. I really think I’m going to have to go make these now. My mouth is watering. It doesn’t help that I also haven’t had lunch yet, but I think it’s MOSTLY the cookies talking.
