Isn't better to use quality butter instead of crisco?
Sure, but if you want it to taste like an oreo you have to use crisco

We make vegan Oreos using Spectrum non-hydrogenated vegetable shortening (kid is allergic to dairy and soy; crisco has soy in it). We've used both the butter flavor and the original flavor of Spectrum - people generally prefer the filling made with the butter flavored one. Butter would be way too soft to use in the filling.
Here's the recipe we use: http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2012/10/24/healthy-oreos/

Vanilla Buttercream frosting is butter, powdered sugar and vanilla. Same deal, just less stable.

There's a great recipe for homemade Oreos in the America's Test Kitchen DIY book. The filling is made up of butter, shortening, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. I haven't made them yet, but all if the other recipes I've made from the book are fantastic. (DH and I are ATK and Cook's Illustrated acolytes.)

I LOVE oreos but they give me heartburn, like most store-bought baked goods. I find if I make things myself, however, I'm good. I have tried many recipes for homemade oreos over the years and I have a recipe for the cookie part that I love, but I have never found an icing that works. My favourite part about real oreo icing is how it is dense and hard - not spreadable like most icings. Does anybody have a recipe for this kind of icing? Thanks!
