Oreo Cookies

Oreo cookies are an iconic treat known worldwide, but in this recipe, they take on an Indian twist. The combination of tender chocolate dough with vanilla notes and white chocolate cream creates a harmony of flavors. In India, such desserts are often served with aromatic masala chai, adding a special sophistication to them. The key to preparation is precision in baking: if overbaked, the cookies will lose their crispness. The cream made from cream cheese and chocolate gently complements the crunchy texture. These cookies make a great treat for a cozy evening with loved ones or an unusual addition to traditional tea time. Enjoy!
1
Beat 125 g of softened butter, gradually adding powdered sugar and vanilla sugar. Whip until smooth. In a bowl, mix dry ingredients: flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Combine all ingredients and knead the dough. At first it will be crumbly, but once it becomes uniform, shape it into a ball - the dough will hold well. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

- Powdered sugar: 100 g
- Vanilla sugar: 1 teaspoon
- Wheat flour: 125 g
- Cocoa: 50 g

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Place the circles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 minutes. The main thing is not to overbake!

Remove the tray and let it cool, as it is very soft and fragile at this moment. So do not touch it during this time. Once the cookies cool down, they will harden. Now you can easily remove them.
