Oreo and Cookie Dough Cookies aka Franken-cookies

After baking these cookies, I had them sitting on cooling racks on my counter when my unsuspecting husband asked why they looked “like that“.  Oh, because they’re stuffed with Oreos. Double Stuffed Oreos to be precise, I replied.

He the proceeded to tell me I created a Fanken-cookie. Haha, I like that.

To be fair the original idea was not mine. I’m sure you’ve seen these on Picky Palate.  However, I did tweak them a bit to make them my own. For one, they are stuffed with double stuffed oreos – cuz that’s how I roll.  And I used my own cookie dough recipe (here is a favorite of mine – I just didn’t add the oats). Also, I wanted an extra cookie dough layer because the way to make a cookie stuffed with a cookie even better is to top it with cookie dough. Am I right?
