Today at work, we were instructed to all bring in one of our favorite treats.  I decided to make Double Fudge Oreo Crunch Cookies, not because I love them but because I love making them for other people because they love them.  Brian seriously raves about these cookies whenever I make them.

This past school year, one of my good friends had many food allergies (all nuts, cinnamon…enough said!).  So when I made desserts and baked goods (which was quite frequent), I had to be careful about what the ingredients were.  I assure you that there are no nuts or cinnamon in these cookies, and she loved them!

Double Fudge Oreo Crunch Cookies (originally from How Sweet Eats)

Ingredients:

• 1 cup margarine or butter at room temperature
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2 cups flour
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 1 cup crushed oreos

Then fold in the oreos and the chocolate chips.

Scoop onto an ungreased cookie sheet, and cook for 10-12 minutes.  Makes about 30 cookies.

I would say the worst part about making cookies is cleaning the cookie sheet.  Luckily, my mom made me a handy little scrubber out of tool from an old halloween costume.  She crocheted it!  Now, that’s what I call recycling.  The little scrubber works amazingly, and it won’t scratch non-stick pans.

Enjoy the rest of your Saturday!
