Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Make sure it's at room temperature
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
Dry Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Additions
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 10 cookies Oreo cookies, crushed (reserve some for topping)
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Add the vanilla extract and eggs, beating well until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry mix to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined—be careful not to overmix!
- Stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and crushed Oreo cookies, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving enough space between each cookie.
- Crumble a few reserved Oreos on top of each cookie for added crunch.
Baking
- Place your baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Use softened butter for fluffy cookies. Consider chilling the dough for a chewier texture. Try different Oreo flavors for variety. Keep an eye on the cookies while baking to achieve the perfect consistency.
