This recipe is based on the classic Oreo cookie. Oreos come in various flavors throughout the year, and I love doing the same for my boys!
In the fall, I add pumpkin pie spice to the filling. In the winter, I add nutmeg or peppermint extract. I serve these cookies with a glass of unsweetened macadamia nut milk for dipping—just like I had when I was a little girl!
We hope you love them as much as we do!

TIPS ON MAKING COLLAGEN OREOS
One of my many recipe testers pointed out that all of the ingredients for the homemade Oreo filling needs to be room temperature. Otherwise you will end up with clumpy filling.
This is what my recipe tester emailed me about the Collagen Oreos: “They turned out perfect! My picky eater ate 3! My teenage daughters hid theirs so no one would eat them! My oldest enthusiastically said a couple of profanities and could not believe it was keto!!!!! My husband enjoyed them & said they weren’t too sweet, which he appreciated. I think they saved me 1! Great recipe! Thanks for letting us taste test!”
Collagen Oreos
Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Make the cookies: In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, chocolate collagen, sweetener, baking powder, and salt. Add the melted butter, egg, and vanilla and stir well to combine into a thick dough.
Roll out the dough on a large piece of parchment until it is ¼ inch thick. Use a round cookie cutter that is 1½ inches in diameter to cut out the cookie shapes. You will get about 50 cookies. Place the cookies on the prepared cookie sheet.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned. Turn off the oven and leave the cookies in the oven for 15 more minutes to crisp up. Remove and allow to cool completely.
While the cookies are cooling, make the filling: Put the butter, cream cheese, and heavy cream in a medium bowl and use a hand mixer to mix well. Stir in the sweetener, salt, and extract or spice, if using. Taste and adjust the sweetness to your liking.
Once the cookies are cool, pipe or spread a tablespoon of the filling on a cookie. Top the filling with another cookie to make a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling.

Has food helped your anxiety or depression? Check out Lynda’s inspirational testimony!
“In September 2020 my father passed away from Covid unexpectedly. He was a diabetic, through my depression of losing him I wanted to get healthy. My weight had skyrocketed to 290. I was embarrassed had no energy and seeing all the information about Covid and being heavy and underlying health issues I wanted to make a change.
First thing I purchased was Maria Emmerich’s book The 30 Day Ketogenic Cleanse. I read it made notes and set up an appointment with my doctor. I needed to know what was going on inside. I came back with pre-diabetes high cholesterol and I was embarrassed I brought the book to my appointment he said do it I’m a firm believer in clean eating. He set me up an appointment for three months from then, also with 3 prescriptions I was defeated but determined.
I didn’t plan an unhealthy meal that night I went to the store to start on my journey. Within 2 weeks I felt better I was embarrassed to look at the scale so I didn’t. I had no problems coming off sugar or carbs. I found that replacing items with healthy items gave me a ton of energy. I even ripped up my kitchen floor and redid it myself.
I came back at 3 months took blood test and the three days later I went to the doctor. He walked in the room and said WOW!! What in the World you just reversed everything but I still want to monitor you. I came in at 290 three months prior and got on the scale at 210. 80 lbs down in ONLY 3 months I actually amazed myself and I was off every single prescription.
My determination was higher than ever it said ok get under 200 you can do it. I stopped snacking and stuck to 2-3 meals a day.
As I was excited on this journey I was fascinated with MariaMindBodyHealth.com website then I heard someone only talking about intermittent fasting. When I incorporated that with a regular home improvement projects, and walking before I knew it I literally had to clean out my size 22 and was sliding into a size 8, a week later a size 6 until I got into a size 4. I actually started to lose energy and adjust everything in my macros and went back to a size 6 where I have stayed since 2020.
I’m now a healthy 130lbs. The doctor when he weighed me at my 160lb loss he literally bowed down and said you are an inspiration a success story I am going to tell everyone about if I can? I said go for it.
For the first time in my life I’m comfortable in my own skin. I tell everyone to use this program and they ask. How did you do it? My advice to them is this ‘listen to your body, it’ll tell you what works for you and what doesn’t. Everyone has things that work for them.’ I never thought I could ever be under a size 22 or wear a large or medium jacket sliding into clothes I envied other women wearing is a thing of the past. I still get lots of phone calls and messages please tell me what to do but I’m a firm believer you have to reach down deep and listen to your inner voice and follow Maria Emmerich.
I am also completely off anti anxiety meds and have not had a panic attack in 2 years. I truly believe how you eat can heal you from the inside out. It also can age you backwards. So my utmost thanks, love and gratitude to Maria and Craig Emmerich for being my silent coaches into a better me.I hated taking pictures of myself. Now I don’t mind.Thank you for just being you and helping normal folks like us go to the next level.” Lynda
