    Call me crazy, but I don't like the filling (too sweet). So when I get oreos I just scrape it off, and enjoy the biscuits as a low calorie snack. That's about 10 calories a pop, so I get to eat 20 biscuits (10 oreos) which feels like a lot for a mere 200 calories.

    I wish they had the Oreo Cream in the jar I would so buy that.

    I'm surprised they haven't come out with a Pop Rocks Oreo yet.

    For anyone interested in the recipe, I found it here: http://www.willcookforsmiles.com/2016/03/oreo-cheesecake-doughnuts.html. I ran them through the recipe builder, and they look to be ~700-800 calories per donut (assuming only about half of the 30 oz of oil absorbs into them). That definitely would be an indulgence for me. :)

    What recipe builder?

    I prefer using the Fatsecret recipe builder. The database is smaller, but it's easier to edit.

    I just used the MFP recipe builder (the old version).

    Tried the lemon thin Oreos on sale. They are good, I'm not crazy about lemon cookies usually, but everyone seems to enjoy them.

    Finally tried the Reese's PB Cup Oreos yesterday.
    Not bad. I put them just below the brownie batter. Definitely better than the straight peanut butter Oreos.

    I'll definitely pick these up at some point. I don't normally enjoy lemon, but there's less creme in these cookies. Mint thins were great.

    This was staring me in the face when I went to Target yesterday. I didn't buy any, though the S'mores flavor was tempting. I opted for wine instead. ntixpp9ej2o9.jpeg

    Sometimes, you just have to go with the regular.

    But then you realize you bought double stuf. And decide to eat three anyway.

    I'm beginning to think my parents found me in a meteor crater or something. I hate Oreos. To me the cookie tastes bitter and burnt. Then again, I'm also one of those lucky people whose taste buds translate cilantro as soap. LOL

    Mega Stuf Oreos have too much filling. It's upsetting. However, we did find key lime Oreos, though I have yet to try one.

    I hate normal Oreos and I'm generally not fond of sweets, but Key Lime pie can be Kryptonite to me. The Key Lime Oreos might actually be dangerous for me. LOL

    They have a graham cracker cookie with key lime filling. It's pretty good.

    I saw that. I Googled them... they do indeed look quite dangerous for someone weak against normal Key Lime pie.

    I'm going to have to stop you there, little homie. Peanut Butter Creme is better than Reese's Peanut Butter Oreos. If you want to fight , I'm ready.

    I seldom buy oreo's. Whatever size package I buy I will eat the whole thing. I like the original or thins.

    I actually tried key lime pie for the first time the other day (it was a trader joe's sample) and now I REALLY need the key lime pie oreos in my life but no joy in the stores I go to (yet!). Where'd you find them?

    I refuse to order off amazon. The prices are outrageous.

    I don't think we have a Shop Rite equivalent in California...
