You are going to love today’s cookies. Oreo cookies and chocolate chip cookies. When two become one. It looks good and tastes even better. I didn’t tell my tasters (who consist of anyone I happen to meet that week – friends, family, my friend’s dog, etc… Just to make sure I’m not the only one who likes what I make) about the oreo inside and it definitely took them by surprise.
“Is that a cookie inside?? Oh wait, is that an oreo cookie?? What?! How cool!”
It’s not just oreo pieces thrown into the batter. It’s a whole oreo cookie coated in a giant chocolate chip cookie. Can you imagine?

I used a basic chocolate chip cookies recipe for this one. No surprise ingredients and the usual creaming method. You should be fine making it. The cookies are soft, making them an amazing match for the crunchy oreo.

To coat the oreo with the cookie dough, place 1.5-tablespoons of dough on top of the oreo. I used 1.5-tablespoons ice-cream scoop but you can use a heaping tablespoon instead. Then do the same for the bottom of the oreo. Press the dough with your hands to seal it, until the oreo is well covered. Roll it with your hands to smooth it.

Bake the cookies for about 9-12 minutes. I like my cookies on the raw side so they are extra soft. If they are baked for too long, they become dry, so watch them. You’ll know when they’re done when the edges start to brown and the top doesn’t look raw anymore.

If you do the math, each cookie consists of 3 tablespoons of cookie dough + a cookie. This is a whole lot of crazy goodness. And I think you’ve had a hard day, so you deserve one.
Go for it.
