Kevin is a hard person to buy presents for... he doesn't really want presents, he much prefers to just buy his own stuff. We recently got a Trader Joe's (finally) and he was all excited to try the cookie butter, but he thought it was too sweet. So for a Christmas present, I decided to try my hand at making Oreo cookie butter.
This is the first recipe that I have ever wanted to make that I actually needed a food processor for. My mom gave me a food processor about 15 years ago, and it sat in my cabinet taking up space for 10 years, never once used. So, I gave it away. Since then, every recipe I have come across that called for a food processor, I've been able to get away with just using a blender. But a blender wasn't going to cut it for Oreos. So, I had to BUY a food processor. Which I guess means that I'll be making cookie butter till the cows come home because I have no other use for it.
It kind of went like this: Kevin sees food processor box on counter and asks "What's that for?" Me: "Nothing." Kevin comes into kitchen when I'm putting away groceries and attacks the package of Oreos. Me: "Wait, those aren't for you." "What are they for?" "Something." Yeah, I'm real good at keeping secrets.
But back to the recipe... it was embarrassingly easy. Oreos and neutral-taste coconut oil. That's it. Less than 10 minutes in the food processor and it's ready to be spread on a piece of toast... or a banana... or a graham cracker... or your fingers...

Since it was a gift, I made a little tag for the top of the 8 oz. mason jar I used to store it. And you can print 12 of these nifty little tags by clicking here:
