Red Velvet Oreo Butter
So, I'm sure most of you have heard about cookie butter. Trader Joe's makes a damn delicious speculoos cookie butter and also a cookies n cream butter. I've had my eye on these limited edition Red Velvet oreos for a while and I've made oreo butter before, so why not a red velvet oreo butter?
I added in some cream cheese to up the tangy flavor, because what is red velvet without its better half--cream cheese? The result is essentially a red velvet spread. It's glorious spread on cookies, spread on toast, eaten off a spoon. Treat it like Nutella!
I also tried making cookies with it and they came out super fudgy and tasty. I had seen recipes out there for Nutella cookies and simply swapped it out for this butter. Joe thought they were delicious muffin tops, not cookies, but inhaled them, nonetheless.
These would also be great frozen into balls and dipped in white chocolate. For the true red velvet lovers, there's nothing better. The possibilities are endless, so go forth!
