  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

    1. Prep the Oreos: Carefully remove the cream filling from the Oreo cookies. Set the cookies aside.
    2. Create the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually whisk in the milk until a smooth batter forms.
