Ingredients

oreos

  • 4 tbsp butter softened
  • 1 chocolate cake mix (or white cake mix + 1/4 cup cocoa powder)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp greek yogurt (or sour cream)

peanut butter filling

  • 4 tbsp butter softened
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • pinch of salt
  • 2-3 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. To make the cookies, preheat the oven to 350. Add the butter to a bowl and beat with a stand mixer (or hand mixer) for 2 minutes. Add the cake mix, eggs, and yogurt. Mix until everything is incorporated. The dough will be very sticky.
  2. Using a small cookie scoop, scoop up to 12 balls of dough onto a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 8-11 minuets, until the cookies are just set.
  3. While the cookies are cooling, make the filling. Add the butter and peanut butter to a bowl. Mix with a stand or hand mixer for 2 minutes. Add vanilla and salt and mix again. Add the powdered sugar and mix for another 2-3 minutes until the mixture is smooth.
  4. Once the cookies have cooled, pipe or spread the mixture onto half of the cookies and sandwich with the remaining cookies! Enjoy!
