America's favorite cookie turns 100 this year. That is cause for celebration. To honor the milestone they created a birthday cake flavor Oreo. To celebrate the new flavor I made cookies. I know some people don't like Oreos. It doesn't actually taste like chocolate and I don't really want to know what the center is made out of. But, that's not what it's about. Oreos are fun. That's what they are supposed to be. Just like my creation. It isn't fancy or upscale, but fun.
This recipe is based on what I found here. I just adapted for birthday cake Oreos
Birthday Cake Oreo Cheesecake Cookies
10 birthday cake flavored Oreos
1/2 C. butter, room temperature
3 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
1C. granulated sugar
1 t. vanilla extract
1 C. all purpose flour
1/2 C. rainbow sprinkles
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Take Oreos and crush or chop by hand or in food processor. Set aside.
3. In medium bowl cream butter and cream cheese with sugar. Beat in vanilla and then flour, just until combined. Stir in sprinkles. Set in refrigerator for 15 minutes to make dough easier to handle.
4. Form 1" balls, about 1 rounded tablespoon. Coat with crushed Oreos and place on cookie sheet.
5. Bake 12-15 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and cookie is puffed. You don't want to over cook as Oreos will burn.
