Green Tea Filled Oreo Cookies – Award Winning

I was recently informed that there is a cool chocolate dipping contest going on with Tropical foods and my ears perked up! How can I not participate? I have been meaning to try out their chocolate and this gave me all the motivation I needed. Just tasting the chocolate before heated up for dipping, told me everything. Silky in texture and flavor. PERFECT for dipping all sorts of foods. Personally? I love raspberries the most dipped in chocolate. The pop in flavor that is unleashed after the first bite into the chocolate covered berry… WOW. Ok, I might have to go out and buy some berries thinking about this now. Also, my family and I enjoy dipping strawberries, crystalized ginger bites, homemade truffles, and cookies!

Which is why I thought I’d try my hand at homemade Oreo-style cookies, infused with green tea in the frosting! And… dipped in Tropical foods chocolate of course!

Ingredients:

Box of Devil’s Food Cake Mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 pkg of cream cheese
1 cup confectioners sugar
1/2 Tazo Zen tea (green tea)

Method:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Mix together oil, eggs and cake mix, and roll out little cookies. Slightly flatten cookies with spatula before baking. Bake for 10 minutes, let cool completely. Mix together cream cheese, sugar and 1/2 a bag of tea to a smooth consistency. Pipe onto cookie and seal cookies shut! Dip in chocolate if you wish!

Enjoy and savor the flavor of tea with chocolate!
