These soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies are packed with crushed Oreos for a fun twist on a classic treat. Chunks of Oreo not only add extra flavour but also make these cookies thicker, chewier, and more indulgent than your average cookie!
Ever since the two of us met, my wife Liv has been greeting me and anyone I know at the door with her famous chocolate chip cookies. But those aren’t the only cookies she’s good at making… give these chewy oatmeal chocolate chunk cookies and cinnamon-y white chocolate pecan cookies a try!
Who knew? Oreos are accidentally vegan, making them a foolproof addition to any plant-based dessert
These Oreo chocolate chip cookies exceeded my wildest cookie dreams
When you have a quick and easy powerhouse chocolate chip cookie recipe like these chewy chocolate chip cookies to start you off – adding a crushed Oreo mixture can only make for an even better texture! So, if you’re a lifelong fan of Oreos like I am, and appreciate the fact that they are one of the truly great junk foods that are accidentally vegan, give these a try. You won’t be disappointed!
Why make regular cookies when you can make giant cookies?
Here’s where you can have some fun. In the past, I’ve actually made this recipe into a giant cookies by using 1/4 cup of dough per cookie. If you prefer a personal size cookies, the standard 2 tbsp is perfect for that chewy interior you know and love, without going overboard.
Freezing and storing your cookies and cookie dough
These cookies are super freezer-friendly! Scoop the dough onto a tray and freeze until firm, then toss into a container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. Bake straight from frozen, you might just need an extra minute or two.
Already baked cookies stay soft in an airtight container for about 5 days, or pop them in the freezer for up to 2 months and enjoy anytime.
