Ingredients

  • 140 g vegan butter softened at room temp
  • 300 g all-purpose flour
  • 35 g black cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 100 g granulated sugar
  • 100 g brown sugar
  • 90 ml non-dairy milk must be lukewarm
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 56 g vegan butter softened at room temp
  • 100 g vegan plain cream cheese I used Kite Hill
  • 250 g powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Set out the vegan butter to soften at room temperature.
  • Preheat the oven to 350° F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a food processor, grind the Oreos until finely crushed.
  • Whisk together the crushed Oreos, all-purpose flour, black cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium-sized bowl.
  • In another large bowl, cream together the softened vegan butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the lukewarm non-dairy milk and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix on low until combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until a soft cookie dough forms.
  • Using a large cookie scoop, portion the dough into balls and flatten them to about 1-inch thick.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes. Let cool on the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Prepare the creamy filling by whipping together the softened vegan butter, vegan cream cheese, and powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Once the cookies are completely cool, spread the cream filling between two cookies.
