Oreos

This isn't so much a recipe as it is a step-by-step guide to eating Oreos.  I know that everyone has their own way of eating them, but this is by far the best way, if I do say so myself (and I do).

INGREDIENTS

• A bag of Double Stuff Oreos.  Yes, they must be Double Stuff.
• A glass of ice-cold milk.

 DIRECTIONS

Take two Oreos out of the bag, and take one chocolate wafer off of each of them.  Eat the plain wafers, so that you're left with two chocolate wafers with a double helping of white Oreo-ey goodness on top.  Fortunately, Double Stuff Oreos usually come apart fairly cleanly, so you don't have to deal with trying to scrape half of the filling off of one wafer and put it on the other.

Lick the icing on both cookies - not enough to actually eat any of the icing, just enough to moisten them and make them a little sticky.  Honestly, this step probably isn't necessary, but I like to do it anyway.

Stick the two cookies together, with the icing in the middle (obviously).  Hold the resulting Quadruple Stuff cookie between your thumb and pointer finger, and dip it in the milk.  Keep it in there for awhile, much longer than you probably think is necessary.  15 seconds, at least. 

Take the cookie out of the milk, and put the whole thing in your mouth.  (This is not something you want to eat in any situation where you're worried about impressing people with your ability to eat gracefully, so I wouldn't recommend it for, say, dinner with your future in-laws or a gala at the White House.)

Chew.  Swallow.  Love.

Try not to eat the entire bag in one sitting; leave some for tomorrow.





You're welcome.
