recipe: cookies & cream cookies

these are a perfect cookie if you're in the mood for baking in the middle of summer (and only have about 30 minutes before you need to leave)... they are quick & easy but abs delish. i found the recipe on foodgawker.com, and copied it exactly from Kirbie Cravings (with a tad extra vanilla & oreos). they come out SO delish, and good if you want to switch up from traditional choc chip.

ingredients list:

2 & 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup butter, softened
1 & 1/2 cups white sugar
1 egg
1 & 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
20 oreo cookies, divided

to make: preheat oven to 350. in a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and baking powder & set aside. grind 6 oreo cookies in a food chopper until they form fine crumbs, and set aide.

in a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. beat in egg and vanilla. gradually blend in the dry ingredients until dough is formed. add 14 oreos directly into batter & beat on medium high speed until the oreos are crushed thoroughly into dough. roll dough into balls about 1 inch to 1 1/2 inch in diameter, roll into the oreo crumbs until totally covered, and place onto parchment paperlined cookie sheets about 2 inches apart.

bake about 9-11 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden around the edges. cool on wire racks.
