Oreo Hack: Does it Work?

So the other day I stumbled upon a life hack that I really wanted to try. Can soaking these cookies actually make mini ice cream sandwiches? I first tried soaking the Oreos in some half and half for about 5 minutes but they really fell apart. My second attempt, I only soak them for 3…
