HoMeMaDe OREO'S

These are delish.  They went sooo fast I didn't get a chance to take a picture.  This recipe makes quite a few cookies, you could half it if you only want a few.

Cookies:
2 packages Devil Food cake mix
4 eggs
1/2 C. shortening
1/2 C. butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Mix cake mix, eggs, shortening, and butter with electric mixer.  Using a small ice cream scoop, place balls of dough on cookie sheet.  Flatten dough with fingers to make smooth.  Bake for 10 minutes. Let cool on cookie sheet for 5 minutes before removing from cookie sheet. Let cool an additional 10 minutes before frosting.

Frosting:
6 T. cream cheese
1/2 C. butter
1 tsp. vanilla
3 C. powdered sugar

Combine all ingredients with electric mixer until thoroughly combined. Spread frosting between 2 similar sized cookies. Enjoy!
