Jocelyn of the popular food blog Grandbaby Cakes came up with an excusable way to eat cookies for breakfast through her [Oreo Pancakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snickerdoodle-pancakes) recipe. The iconic [chocolate and cream cookie sandwich](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oreo-cookie-products) is meant to be milk's favorite cookies, but after digging into this delicious dish you may favor the pancake pairing more.

Bringing together the best of the [breakfast and dessert worlds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffee-cake-pancakes), Jocelyn managed to create a recipe that "looks like heaven on earth" and tastes just as incredible. Made with real Oreos and cocoa powder, the confection takes breakfast food to a whole new level. Combined with generous dollops of whip cream and chocolate syrup, they mimic the taste of an Oreo cookie perfectly.
