Homemade Oreo Cookies


One of my favorite cookies. When I was little for my birthday my mom would make this cookies for me to take to school for my treat to share with my class. I remember she would stay up all night making them for me. What a good mom I had!  Now days you have to take store bought treats instead of homemade. What is the world coming too :)
