Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular OREOS instead of Golden Oreos?

You can but your cookies will have a bit of a chocolate flavor.

The flavor of the cookies were very good. The cookies had more of a cakey texture. I prefer cookies that are on the chewy side. I am an avid baker, as I have a home bakery. I tried to not bake them as long, but still had the cake texture. I tried to drop the pan on the counter to get them to deflate, and they still did not flatten out. Would still make again because the flavor is great and my preference may not be everyone else’s preference. I took a picture to post but don’t see an option to attach the photo.

I can’t wait to try these! I was thinking about substituting the jello mix for blended dried strawberries. Do you have any thoughts on this, do you think it would work okay? Thanks for the recipe 🙂

    I made these cookies with blended dried strawberries instead of jello and left out the red food coloring (my friend is allergic to coloring), and they turned out delicious! Very strong strawberry flavor and stays crunchy for days in a Tupperware Thank you for the recipe!
