Homemade Oreos

When I had these cookies at my aunt's house I assumed that they must be incredibly difficult to make because they tasted so good. But one Sunday afternoon I decided that I would do whatever it took to make them and I called to get the recipe. I was so surprised that they were made with a cake mix! I don't know if all homemade Oreos are made like this, but these ones were extremely easy to make and were just wonderful.

Cookies:

chocolate cake mix

3/4 cup shortening

2 eggs

Mix ingredients well. Roll into walnut sized balls. Bake at 350° for 5-8 minutes.

Icing:

8 oz cream cheese

1 whole bag powdered sugar

1 cube margarine (not melted, just softened)

1/2 tsp vanilla
