Homemade Oreo Cookies

1 super moist devils food cake mix
2 eggs
1/2 c. shortening

Mix together. Roll into balls about the size of a walnut and slightly press down. Bake at 350 degrees for 7-9 minutes. Cool completely. Spread with the frosting mixture when cool to make your own oreos!

FROSTING
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 c. butter
1 lb powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Cream together and refrigerate overnight before making into oreos.

NOTE: Sometimes this frosting recipe seems to have tons of leftovers, so I will make 2 batches of cookies (double the above) so I use up all the frosting. Or you have half the frosting recipe.
