Love it or hate it, the polarizing flavor of carrot cake remains among the most popular of the 21st century. If you’re a fan, you’ll go crazy over these cookies, which retain the spiced flavor of deconstructed Carrot Cake Oreo cookies and call for replacing their filling with a mixture of cream cheese and vodka.
The resulting cookie is creamy, spicy and packing a serious punch thanks to the vodka. Once you try these boozy Oreos, you’ll never look at the popular sandwich cookie the same way again.
Ingredients
-
5 ounces unsalted butter, room temperature
-
3 ounces vodka
-
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
-
4 ounces full-fat cream cheese, room temperature
-
15 Carrot Cake Oreo sandwich cookies
Steps
-
Add the butter and vodka into a bowl and beat with an electric mixer at high speed until fluffy.
-
Add the sugar and beat until smooth, scraping down the bowl as needed.
-
Add the cream cheese and mix on low speed for 1 minute, just until the mixture is smooth; do not overmix.
-
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set.
-
While the mixture chills, twist apart the Oreos, removing and discarding the filling.
-
When the mixture has set firm, spread about a tablespoon onto each cookie half and top with another cookie half. Chill again to set before serving.
