For the Oreo icing I just made regular vanilla frosting then smashed up Oreos in my food processor and mixed it in with the vanilla until it was light and fluffy. Yum. For the peanut butter I also used the regular vanilla frosting recipe and added peanut butter. I think it was a successful day of baking.
