We dedicate these cookies to Nancy Meyers and The Parent Trap movie. Peanut Butter cookies with crushed Oreos, filled with a cream cheese filling and topped with more crushed Oreos.

Ingredients

Scale

Peanut Butter Oreo Cookie

3 cups flour

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

2 sticks cold butter, cubed

3/4 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1 1/4 cup roughly chopped Oreos + Extra Oreo crumbles for topping

Cheesecake Filling

8 oz cream cheese, softened

3/4 cup powdered sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Combine cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla. Scoop into small balls on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Set in freezer while you make the dough.
  3. Preheat oven to 375.
  4. In a medium size bowl, mix flour salt and baking powder. Set aside for later.
  5. In a stand mixer, add cubed butter. On a low speed, cream your butter until it is a whipped texture.
  6. Add in your sugars and mix on medium speed until creamed together. Make sure all butter is evenly blended into the sugars.
  7. Add two eggs and vanilla extract to the creamed butter and mix on medium-high speed. Pour in your flour mixture in 1/3 portions, waiting to make sure the flour mixture is incorporated completely before adding more.
  8. Once your mixture is fully blended together, remove mixing bowl from the stand mixer. Add in your chopped Oreos to the batter. Using a wooden spoon, mix everything into the dough.
  9. Using a cookie scoop, scoop a ball of dough onto the cookie sheet. Using your fingers, make a hole in the center. Add a small ball of cream cheese filling to the center and wrap the cookie dough over it. Repeat until you have 9 cookie dough balls on your baking sheet. Top each cookie with additional Oreo crumbles. Gently press into the top.
  10. Bake cookies for 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and eat them cool for 10 minutes. Serve and enjoy with a hot cup of coffee or milk tea.
