Berry Cookies and Cream Cookies


In December, I took my favorite cookies n’ cream cookies recipe and made a festive holiday version using the red cream holiday edition Oreo cookies.

I thought about doing something similar for Valentine’s Day when I found these pink berry burst flavored Oreos.

Unfortunately, the pink color is a bit light, so when mixed with the dough, it gets even more muddled down. I wasn’t quite happy with the color of the dough, but the cookies remain good. They are crisp on the outside, soft and chewy in the middle. The berry flavor was surprisingly strong.


If you like berry flavor, that’s a good thing. I usually am not a fan of berry flavored cookies or ice cream, etc, so I prefer the original version.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Berry Cookies and Cream Cookies

Yield: 2 dozen

Ingredients:

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
about 12 berry burst flavored Oreo cookies

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients until dough is formed. Add oreos directly into batter and beat on low speed until oreos are crushed and blended into dough. Roll dough into balls about 1 1/2 inch in diameter and place onto ungreased cookie sheets lined with parchment paper about 2 inches apart.
3. Bake about 11-12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden around the edges. Cookies will be initially puffy when taken out from oven and will flatten after they cool.

    I’m not a big Oreos person, but I have to say that I love those berry ones too much! I did do the oreo cream cheese truffles with them when they first came out. Adds a nice flavor to any cookies ‘n cream.

      It’s definitely different. I was surprised at how much berry taste was in them. I guess the “berry burst” description is very fitting. Truffles sounds like a great idea!
