Oreo Midnight Snack

Introduction

This is my favorite midnight snack. There is nothing fancy to it really, just a cozy and chunky dessert filled with chocolatey and creamy cheese goodness. I'd like to think of this recipe as a cross between the Italian trifle and strawberry cheese cake. If you don't have time to do either, this is a quicky alternative. I like to use balsamic vinegar from Modena because it is concentrated and sweet and it balances the tanginess of the strawberries perfectly. Tuck a couple of these mini-sandwiches and enjoy your favorite late night TV show.

Ingredients

Serves: 1

strawberries (cut thinly across)
balsamic vinegar (from Modena)
oreo cookies (halved, discard the cream filling)
cream cheese (softened to almost room temperature)

Soak the sliced strawberries in some balsamic vinegar for a few minutes.

Fill in one side of the Oreo cracker with your favourite cream cheese that has been softened a little bit.

Manage to fit on top several strawberry slices, and then cover with the other side of the cookie.

Make several because you surely can't get enough from just one. One sandwich is approximately a mouthful.
