Here’s how to make them.
Ingredients Youโll Need
To make Oreo Sushi Rolls, you only need a handful of ingredients and basic tools. Hereโs what youโll need:
- Oreo cookies (classic, mint, or any flavor you like)
- Filling: You can use the reserved Oreo cream, cream cheese, Nutella, peanut butter, or marshmallow fluff
- Optional add-ins: Strawberries, bananas, or sprinkles
- Tools: Rolling pin, parchment paper, mixing bowl, sharp knife
You can customize your fillings and flavors based on your preferences or whatever you have in the pantry.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Making Oreo Sushi Rolls is surprisingly simple. Follow these steps to get that perfect, rollable consistency and clean cuts.
- Separate the Oreos: Twist apart the Oreo cookies and scrape out the cream. Set the filling aside if you plan to reuse it.
- Crush the cookies: Place the cookie halves in a food processor or zip-top bag and crush them into fine crumbs.
- Form the dough: Mix the crushed cookies with 1โ2 tablespoons of milk or melted butter until a dough forms. It should be pliable but not sticky.
- Roll it out: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a thin, even rectangle.
- Spread the filling: Spread the Oreo cream, Nutella, or other filling evenly over the surface of the dough.
- Roll it up: Carefully roll the dough into a tight log, using the parchment paper to help guide it.
- Chill: Refrigerate the roll for 30โ60 minutes to firm up.
- Slice into sushi pieces: Use a sharp, serrated knife to cut the roll into 1-inch slices. Wipe the knife clean between cuts for a neat finish.
Fun Variations to Try
Oreo Sushi Rolls are easy to customize. Try these creative variations for new flavors and textures:
- Mint Oreo Sushi: Use mint-flavored Oreos and add a touch of peppermint extract to the filling.
- Birthday Cake Rolls: Add rainbow sprinkles to the filling and use Birthday Cake Oreos.
- Fruit-Filled Rolls: Add thin slices of strawberries or bananas for a fruity twist.
- Peanut Butter Bombs: Use a layer of peanut butter and top with mini chocolate chips before rolling.
These variations make Oreo Sushi Rolls fun to repeat and share with others.
Tips for Perfect Oreo Sushi Rolls
