ByMarina Montclair October 13, 2025October 13, 2025

Introduction

These Oreo chocolate chip cookies are a delightful twist on a classic favorite. Packed with chunks of Oreos and melty chocolate chips, they offer a perfect balance of crunch and gooeyness. Easy to make and utterly delicious, they’re sure to satisfy any cookie craving.

The image shows several golden brown cookies laid out on a white marbled surface, each cookie thick and soft-looking with a slightly crisp edge. The cookies have multiple layers of texture: a light tan cookie base, chunks of dark chocolate cookie pieces embedded throughout, and some chocolate chips scattered over the top. White cream from the cookie pieces creates a contrasting detail with the dark chocolate color, and the surface of the cookies shows small cracks and a rough texture from the chocolate mix-ins. There are also broken pieces of chocolate cookies lying next to the cookies on the white marbled surface. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter (slightly softened)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 ¼ cup flour
1 tbsp corn starch
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
7 Oreo cookies (roughly chopped, regular stuffed, not double stuffed)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using a spatula until smooth.
Step 3: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and stir until fully incorporated and smooth.
Step 4: Gradually add the flour, corn starch, baking soda, and salt to the wet ingredients, stirring gently just until combined.
Step 5: Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped Oreo pieces carefully.
Step 6: Using a large cookie scoop (about 1/4 cup or 4 tablespoons), portion out the dough into 10 equal cookies on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7: Bake for 13 minutes. The cookies may look slightly underdone or gooey in the center, which is perfect as they will continue to set as they cool.
Step 8: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack to finish cooling.

Tips & Variations

For a chewier cookie, swap half of the butter for softened cream cheese.
Try using milk chocolate chips or white chocolate chips for a different flavor profile.
Be careful not to overmix the dough once the dry ingredients are added to keep cookies tender.
If you prefer smaller cookies, reduce the scoop size and adjust baking time to 10-12 minutes.

Storage

Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. To keep them soft, add a slice of bread to the container. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature before serving. Reheat gently in the microwave for 10-15 seconds if desired.

How to Serve

The image shows large, round cookies with a golden-brown edge and soft beige center filled with broken pieces of black and white sandwich cookies and scattered dark brown chocolate chips. There are about five cookies visible, placed on a white marbled surface, with crumbs and cookie pieces around them, giving a close-up view of the different textures between the crumbly cookies, smooth chocolate chips, and crunchy sandwich cookie bits.

FAQs

Can I use double stuffed Oreos instead?

Regular stuffed Oreos are recommended because double stuffed cookies add too much filling, which can affect the texture and baking consistency. However, double stuffed can be used if you prefer a stronger cream flavor.

Can I make the dough ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the dough and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours before baking. This actually helps deepen the flavor and improve the cookie texture.
