These Red Velvet Oreo Sandwich Cookies are soft, rich, and stuffed with Oreo cream cheese frosting—like a bakery treat made for cookie lovers.
These Red Velvet Oreo Sandwich Cookies are rich, chewy, and filled with a dreamy Oreo cream cheese frosting that takes them over the top. Made with cake mix, they’re easy enough for a weekday bake but feel like something you’d find at a boutique bakery. If you love red velvet and Oreos, these cookie sandwiches combine the best of both in every bite.
1/2 c cream cheese baking chips (or white chocolate)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 c butter, softened
1 box (3 1/2 c) powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 c crushed Oreos
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Fold in the cream cheese chips. Cover and refrigerate for at least a half hour.
Preheat oven to 350. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Using a small cookie scoop, add the cookie dough to the sheets about 2″ apart. Bake for 12-16 minutes. Be sure to bake these all the way since they’re a softer cookie. Let them cool completely.
To make the buttercream, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add in the powdered sugar and vanilla and mix. Add in the Oreos and mix until fully combined.
Flip one cookie over and pipe or spread frosting on the cookie, covering the entire thing. Add a second cookie to the top. Repeat with remaining cookies.
***If you don’t like a lot of frosting in your cookie sandwiches, cut the frosting recipe in half.
