Oreos can be used in a variety of homemade desserts, including pies, cakes, smoothies, and candy. They can be used as a crust, topping, or ingredient, and can be ground up or left whole. Milkshakes and malts can also be made with Oreos.
Oreo cookies can be eaten as-is and used to make a variety of homemade treats. Some of the more common types of Oreo desserts include pies and cakes where cookies are used as a crust, topping, or ingredient. Smoothies made with these popular cookies can be a fun way to cook with Oreos, and there are several types of homemade candy where they’re one of the main ingredients.
Pies of almost any variety are a common dessert for special celebrations or an everyday treat, and are one of the most popular Oreo desserts. These cream and chocolate brownies can be ground up together with a cake’s batter or frosting, as well as crushed and stuck to the outside of one. When left whole, Oreos can also be used to decorate a cake, and when ground and mixed with butter, they are considered one of the best ingredients for making a chocolate cheesecake crust.
When it comes to pie, Oreos can be used as a crust in the same way a cheesecake would, including double-crust pies where the filling is sandwiched with ground Oreos on top and bottom. They’re also great for Oreo desserts that mimic candy with peanut butter cups or mud pies. Whole or ground cookies can also be used as a layer within a layered cake, usually between other toppings such as peanut butter sauce, caramel, or bananas. In addition to these types of desserts, a whole, chopped, or crushed cookie topping is popular with nearly any type of chocolate cake.
One of the simplest types of desserts are milkshakes and malts. Oreos can be added to almost any type of ice cream shake or incorporated into a fruit drink to add a chocolate flavor. For a decadent Oreo dessert, thicker malts or shakes can be had with the cookies themselves, much the same way a person would dip a cookie into a cold glass of milk.
Candy varieties are some of the more unique types of desserts made with this popular cookie. One of the most basic Oreo dessert recipes involves grinding cookies with cream cheese, forming the mixture into balls, and then dipping the balls into melted chocolate. Once cooled, this type of dessert mimics the taste and texture of truffles. Another simple type of Oreo candy includes mixing large, cracked cookies with melted chocolate and then hardening the mixture, creating a candy in the shape of a bark. Both of these basic Oreo desserts can have a variety of additional ingredients added to give a unique twist to these already distinctive treats.
