Oreos

Oreos were invented by Nabisco in 1912. Through the years, they have released many kinds of Oreos including Golden Oreos and the ones with the orange cream filling for Halloween. In 1975, Nabisco introduced Double Stuf Oreos. In my opinion, this was a very smart move on their part. Everyone knows that the best part of the Oreo is the cream filling. So why wouldn't we want more of it?

How to eat an Oreo

Oreos are good plain but here are some other ways to eat them:

1) with milk - Everyone who's ever had an Oreo has dipped it in milk at some time or another. Oreos and milk are so delicious together that there is even a song about them!



Lyrics

Oh, Oh, Oh, ice cold milk
and an Oreo cookie
They forever go together,
What a classic combination
When a dark, delicious cookie
meets an icy cold sensation
Like the one and only creamy,
crunchy, chocolate, O-R-E-O

During the holidays, I like to melt white chocolate and dip Oreos in it and let them harden. They are amazing! Another thing that you can do with Oreos is turn them into Oreo Balls. I am warning you now, these are really rich (but still delicious)!


Here’s what you need and how to make them:

1 package Oreo cookies
1 block softened cream cheese
1 package white baking chocolate squares

Crumble entire package of Oreos until smooth. Add cream cheese to crumbled Oreos (works GREAT in a food processor). Form Oreo mixture into balls and place on cookie sheet covered in wax paper and place in fridge or freezer. When balls are stiff, melt the white chocolate in microwave. Using a toothpick, dip balls into melted chocolate, place back on cookie sheet. When all are covered in chocolate, place in fridge and chocolate will harden

ENJOY!
