Project 52: Week 3 - Self Portrait

I saw a link on FB from Becky Bakes, who happened to find this next amazing recipe:

{RECIPE} - The Messiest Cookies EVER: A.K.A.

Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

2 sticks softened butter
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla
3 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
10 oz bag chocolate chips
1 pkg. Oreo cookies

-Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Cream butter and sugars together with a mixer until well combined.  Beat in eggs and vanilla.

-In a separate bowl mix the flour, salt and baking soda.  Slowly add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips until just combined. 
-Using a cookie scoop (or small spoon), take one scoop of cookie dough and place on top of an Oreo Cookie. 
-Take another scoop of dough and place on bottom of Oreo cookie. 
-Seal edges together by pressing and cupping in hand until Oreo cookie is enclosed with dough.  ** I found that it was easier if you had flour on your hands.  This way the dough doesn't stick to you.  Beware -- I had flour ALL OVER THE PLACE!!
-Place onto a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake cookies 9-13 minutes or until golden brown.
-Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack.

These are AMAZING! AND they are perfect with a cold glass of milk =) The Husband thinks I am THE Greatest Ever ♥
