So have I mentioned my husband's family has a lot of people with celiac? He is #3 out of 9 kids. Four of the nine have it and a few refuse to be tested. I have my opinions about that, but they have already heard them. Anyhow, back to business of the ubber delicious oreos. My brother-in-law (who refuses to get tested) is usually a wee bit annoyed by the gluten free food at family gatherings. However, when I made these little suckers, he couldn't keep his hands off of them.
Oreo Goodness
1 cup butter softened
2 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 ts vanilla
2-1/2 cup gluten free flour
3/4 cup coco
1 ts baking soda
1/2 ts salt
1-1/4 ts xanthum gum
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all of the dry ingredients together. In a separate bowl cream butter and sugar together. Add eggs and vanilla and mix. Next, add the dry ingredients. Once mixed, I usually use my 1 TBS cookie scooper and scoop 12 onto a cookie sheet, I cut them in half and roll them into balls with my hand. Bake for 8-9 minutes. When you take them out they will look a little underdone, but don't keep baking them. They are much better when they are soft. Let them cool on a cookie sheet for a few minutes and then place them on a cooling rack.
Frosting
4 ounces cream cheese
1 stick of butter
1-1/2 cups powder sugar
1/2 ts vanilla
1/8 ts salt
Cream butter then add cream cheese. Add powder sugar, mix and then add vanilla and salt. If for some reason the mixture seems to runny then you can add a little more powder sugar. Prepare yourself: you may just have to run on the treadmill an extra hour or two to burn off what you ate.
