These oreo parathas with a generous amount of oreos stuffed inside, taste out of the world when served hot or warm. It has to be crisp for best experience. Tearing a piece of hot hot paratha and shoving it in is simply divine to imagine. Divine dessert experience!

For a overloaded oreolicious fun dessert, stack wedges of the warm paratha, and scoop oreo ice cream. This makes an incredible dessert! I serve this with my homemade oreo icecream. You may also serve with all time favorite vanilla ice cream too. You may also add a drizzle of chocolate sauce too.

Storage

These parathas are good at room temperature for a day. However, I would suggest storing in the refrigeratr as it has cream cheese in the filling. In this way, it has. shelf life of a week. Heat them on a pan and serve hot or warm.

These parathas can also be stored in the freezer. Make sure to pack with parchment layers between each paratha and then store in a ziploc or airtight container. When needed, cook in the pan and serve warm.

Moreover, this paratha is customizable. Make it smaller to suit the needs. Or cut it into wedges, or serve as a whole dessert paratha smeared with extra ghee or melted butter.

Variations

This recipe uses regular oreos. Depending upon the season, flavored oreos may be used to make different kind of variations to this dessert paratha. I love maing it with peppermint oreos during Christmas time. It is another way of fun.

Further, you can add nuts or chocolate chips additionally to the filling. Or use low fat cream cheese.

Can this be made ahead?

Absolutely! You can make them ahead, store in the fridge, and then warm them in a pan or in oven and serve crisp and warm parathas when needed.

How many Servings?

This recipe makes eight parathas of 6 to 7-inch parathas. This can easily serve eight if served as a whole paratha or upto 16 or 24 people if cut into wedges. My suggestion is that these always vanish quickly as they are addictive! Make more. Double the recipe.
