Hey everybody! Guess what, it’s Wednesday! Yeah, I know the fact that it’s Wednesday isn’t that exciting, but what is exciting is that schools have been out on Fall break this week. Why is that exciting you ask? because it means that my usually poopy commute into work has been soo much better this week.
I didn’t even know the schools were on break until there were barely any folks out on the road in the burbs on Monday. Y’all don’t even know, there were so few people that I had a moment of panic thinking that it was a holiday that I had forgotten about or the whole ‘fall back’ time change had happened unbeknownst to me and I was leaving much later than I should have.
Soo, it’s just been really nice not having to give myself an extra 30-45 minutes (no exaggeration) added to my already hour plus commute because of the school kiddos. I know, none of that has a darn thing to do with cookies, so let’s get to them shall we?
These cookies are a take on my Gooey Chocolate Cookies, except I used a yellow cake mix and threw in some super delish Double Stuf Oreos. Y’all these cookies turned out so dang soft and buttery with the perfect hint of Oreo that I promise there will be no way you will be able to have just 1 or 12 of these little guys. These are so easy and quick to make, there’s no reason you can’t whip some up today 🙂
