Ingredients
Scale
Primary Ingredients:
- 24 Oreo cookies
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
Secondary Ingredients:
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
Seasoning and Leavening:
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for optimal non-stick performance.
- In a mixing bowl, whip butter and sugars until achieving a creamy, aerated consistency. Incorporate eggs and vanilla extract, blending thoroughly until smooth.
- Sift together dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, salt) in a separate bowl to eliminate potential lumps.
- Gradually integrate dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until a uniform dough forms.
- Gently fold chocolate chips throughout the dough, ensuring even distribution.
- Take a portion of cookie dough and flatten into a circular shape, creating a small platform for the Oreo cookie.
- Position an Oreo cookie in the center of the flattened dough, then carefully encase the cookie completely, sealing the edges to prevent any filling from leaking.
- Arrange the stuffed cookies on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them approximately 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 11-13 minutes, watching for golden-brown edges as an indicator of doneness.
- Remove from oven and allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 4-5 minutes, which helps them firm up.
- Transfer cookies to a wire cooling rack and let them cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Wrap the Oreo completely to prevent it from peeking out during baking, ensuring a surprise center in every bite.
- Use room temperature butter and eggs for smoother, more evenly mixed dough that creates a better cookie texture.
- Chill the dough for 15-30 minutes before stuffing to help maintain the cookie’s shape and prevent spreading during baking.
- For a gluten-free version, swap regular flour with a gluten-free blend and use gluten-free sandwich cookies as the stuffing.
