Got this from a girlfriend who had just made them and loved them. As written, this recipe makes rather large cookies as they spread to about 2 1/2 inches. If you try to make traditional size Oreos, cut the baking time back significantly. At 12 minutes, my smaller cookies were burnt, so next time I'm going to check them at 5-7 minutes. My dad and DH, both huge Oreo fans, said they didn't taste just like the store-bought version, but they tasted better. :) They are best chilled.
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
12 tablespoons butter (room temp)
1 cup sugar, plus
2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs
2 tablespoons water
12 ounces chocolate chips, melted
8 tablespoons butter (room temp)
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons light cream, plus
2 teaspoons light cream

2. Add eggs and water, beat together.
3. Add melted chocolate until combined.
4. Add flour& baking soda, beat.
5. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or grease lightly.
