The Cookie Monster

Today marks the 100 year anniversary of the Oreo cookie. It's still quite a popular cookie in this country but it doesn't seem to have the same popularity as it does back in America where it is the country's top selling cookie. The general consensus in this country is that they are over-rated despite their success. It seems that over the recent years, they've become more popular for their use in recipes such as milkshakes, cheesecakes and cupcakes rather than for the cookie itself.



You must all be wondering how I celebrated such a momentous day in history? Well, this afternoon whilst reading an article about the Oreo's legacy I came across several Oreo recipes. The one that caught my eye the most and appeared to be the simplest was one for Oreo truffles. For those interested, the recipe can be found here


As you can see, the presentation doesn't quite match that of the recipe. It's certainly tasty but they are probably too rich for most folk. I may attempt this recipe again but it depends how well received they are at work.
