Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Prepare a 9" x 13" sheet pan by lining it with parchment paper, set aside.
  • Crush vanilla oreo cookies into a fine powder (a food processor works best for this). Set aside.
  • Cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until combined. Add in the egg and the vanilla butter emulsion and mix again.
  • Add in the flour, oreo crumbs, salt, baking soda, and baking powder and mix just until the flour mixture disappears.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop out 16 equally sized cookie dough balls, roll them between the palm of your hands then roll them in coarse sanding sugar.
  • Place the cookie dough on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, pull the cookies out, make an indentation in the center using a ¼ cup measuring cup or the bottom of a glass. Let the cookies cool down on the baking sheet for 15 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack.
  • Prepare the Pastry cream mix.  Add instant mix to milk.  Mix on low until the powder is dissolved and then on high for 3 minutes until smooth and shiny.  Let set for 10 minutes prior to filling cookies. Prepare chocolate glaze while the pastry cream is setting up.
  • Prepare chocolate glaze.  In a microwave safe bowl, microwave dark chocolate and coconut oil for 30 seconds.  Stir, and microwave for 20 seconds.  Continue 20 second intervals until fluid.
  • Fill Cookies: Using a spoon, spoon about 1 tablespoon of pastry cream into the cookie. Top with chocolate glaze and white chocolate curls.
  • Storage: Cookies should be refrigerated.
