Peanut Butter-oreo Frosting

As far as I'm concerned, the richer desserts are, the better--and I know that I'm not alone;) I took my favorite peanut butter frosting recipe and added my favorite packaged cookie--Double Stuffed Oreos. This is a KNOCK-OUT frosting; super rich, creamy, and sweet. Spread on butter cookies, chocolate cookies, peanut butter cookies, sugar cookies, banana cookies, blondies, brownies, all kinds of cakes--whatever you fancy. Instead of Oreos, add in your favorite crushed candy bars (I bet Heath bars, Snickers bars, and Butterfinger bars would be heart-stopping!!!) You're the artist:)
