Now that it's after the holiday season you may be trying to diet. So far you may be successful, and if that's the case, seriously congratulations. I feel really bad but I got to share this very delicious recipe with you. It's Oreo stuffed chocolate chip cookies.

Have you ever heard of the site Pinterest? It's an online pin board where you can organize and share the things you love. Think of it like a Facebook or Twitter, but with pictures. My girlfriend Sarah is pretty big on using Pinterest. She's been finding new recipes and of course, we've been making them. Last night she showed me this cookie recipe and we both decided to try them out. Now the user who posted the recipe on Pinterest got the idea off the website VeryCulinary.com.

Of course being the rebels that we are we decided to not follow these directions and make them our own way. Instead of spending the hours on making cookie dough from scratch, we used pre-made cookie dough and it worked just fine. All we did was flattened the cookie dough, and put an Oreo inside. Once we smoothed out the edges, we put the cookies on a cooking sheet and put in the oven at 350 for about 10 minutes. Once the cookies started to brown, we took them out to cool off. They tasted amazing fresh out of the oven.

If you're looking to not be a rebel and follow the directions, here they are.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together with a mixer until well combined. Beat in eggs and vanilla.

In medium bowl mix the flour, salt, and baking soda. Slowly add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips until just combined.

With a cookie scoop, form balls with the dough.

Place one ball on top of an Oreo cookie, and another ball on the bottom. Seal edges together by pressing and cupping in hand until Oreo cookie is fully enclosed with dough.

Place onto parchment or silpat lined baking sheets and bake cookies for approximately 13 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack.
