How to Make Almost Oreo's
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Roll dough into 3-inch balls.
- Place balls onto prepared baking sheets, leaving ½-inch between each cookie.
- Press down on each cookie ball with the bottom of a glass to flatten.
- Bake for 4-6 minutes, or until edges are set and slightly firm. Do not overbake.
- Let cookies cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cookies cool, prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, beat together cream cheese and butter until smooth.
- Beat in powdered sugar and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Gently fold in the mini marshmallows and graham cracker crumbs.
- Roll the filling mixture into balls about ½-¾ inch in diameter.
- Once the cookies are completely cool, sandwich one filling ball between two cookies, gently pressing down until the filling spreads almost to the edge.
