    Cookies and Cream French Macaron

    Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

    Putting a spin on a classic French Macaron with a childhood favorite.  Cookies and Cream French Macaron are a perfect fit for your back to school lunch box.  

    French Macarons have been a recipe I have always loved to make, but recently my girls have had an interest in them and more than just eating them 🙂  Sophie made a batch of Chocolate Nutella French Macarons a few weeks ago and they turned out amazing.  Since then, she has been begging for a few new flavors.  Cookies and Cream French Macarons was one of the flavors she has been excited about. Since the girls started school this week,  I thought that Cookies and Cream French Macaron would be a great surprise and a perfect way to celebrate the first day.  

    These turned out as good as I hoped.  The flavors are simple but bring back all the childhood memories of our favorite lunch box treat…Oreos!  The Classic French Macaron cookie shell has crushed Oreos added to make the perfect amount of flavor.  The filling in my French Macarons is really where the flavor lives.  This cookies and cream macaron is filled with a butter cream icing that is loaded with crushed Oreos.
