Best Oreo Biscuits

8 ingredients
11 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup 2 tbs butter at room temp

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 190 degrees celsius. Lightly grease a cookie/baking tray.
  2. 2
    In a large bowl, mix the flour, cocoa, baking soda and powder, salt, and sugar.
  3. 3
    Whisk in the butter and the egg, and keep mixing until the batter comes together in a mass (I used a rubber spatula so I don't over mix the dough, but then I quickly gave up and used my hand instead, I would recommend this, too).
  4. 4
    Either spoon mixtures of the dough into a greased cookie tray, or: Very lightly flour a bench and rolling pin. Begin to roll the dough until a desired thickness is reached (do not make the dough too thick, otherwise the centre won't cook properly).
  5. 5
    Cut out cookies with the cookie cutter of your choice (I used hearts + flowers because I LOVE Oreos).
  6. 6
    Use a cake spatula to carefully transfer the cookies to the baking tray. Separate the cookies by about 2 inches (5cms) because they will spread a bit. I put mine in the freezer for 5 minutes to stop them from spreading too much.
  7. 7
    Bake for 10 minutes. Remove but keep in the tray for 5 minutes.
  8. 8
    Next, place the cookies on a cooling rack - they will harden a little bit after transferring them (such that they resemble the hardness of a real Oreo cookie!)
  9. 9
    Repeat the process until all your dough is done.
  10. 10
    To make the filling, you can search a recipe of your choice, or just add vanilla dusting powder to softened Philadelphia cream cheese and sandwich two cookies in between. I thought they tasted amazing that way.
  11. 11
    Twist, lick, and dunk! Or simply, Devour!
