Why This Recipe Works

- No chilling required! I have very little patience, and when I want a cookie, I want it SOON, so these cookies were made with that in mind. There is no dough chilling required, so you can go from whisking flour to dunking a cookie in milk in just a few minutes.

🔪 Instructions
Check out how to make Oreo chocolate chip cookies with these simple step-by-step instructions:
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy in a large mixing bowl.
Add in the vanilla and eggs, and mix to distribute.
Add the dry ingredients to the bowl of egg mixture and mix until well combined. You may need to use your hands to help mix it in. the dough will be thick.
Fold in the chocolate chips and crushed oreo.
Scoop the dough into 2 tablespoon sized scoops and place on a parchment lined baking sheet at least 2 or 3 inches apart.
Place one mini oreo into the center of each dough ball.
Bake the cookies for 10 minutes until the edges look set.
Let rest on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to the cooling rack.

🍴 Recipe Tips
When the crushed oreo chocolate chip cookies come out of the oven, it's important to let them sit on the baking sheet for AT LEAST 2 minutes (preferably longer). This allows the cookies to finish cooking, set, and not fall apart when you go to transfer them to the cooling rack.
Nonstick Baking Sheets Tip
I have personally tested this oreo chocolate chip cookies recipe several times with different baking sheet nonstick options including parchment paper, cooking spray, and a silicone liner.
Each one gives a different type of cookie in the end.
- The parchment paper gives you a thinner, softer/chewier cookie (my personal favorite).
- Silicone-lined baking sheets had the thickest result, with golden edges and a puffy center.
- Greased baking sheets were the darkest cookies, and the appearance/texture was about mid-way between the silicone and parchment cookies.
So depending on how you like your cookies, you may want to play around with the different nonstick options for your baking sheets and see which one helps you achieve your desired cookie results.
⏲️Make Ahead Instructions
You can chill the dough in the freezer for a short time or chill it in the fridge for longer. Depending on how many cookies you want to bake, it might be wise to shuffle the dough around.
I sometimes like to ball out all of my dough on one baking sheet and place it in the fridge or freezer while cooking another sheet pan full.
If you want to make the dough a day or so early, you can keep it covered in the fridge for up to 2 days before baking.
💭 FAQs
If kept in an airtight container at room temperature, these cookies could last up to 5 days and still taste great.
Yes, these cookies can be frozen! To do this, simply allow the cookies to cool completely before placing into an airtight container and freezing for up to 3 months.
No. I do not recommend using margarine for these cookies because they will not turn out correctly if you do. Only butter (salted or unsalted) should be used. Margarine, oils, and even coconut oil will cause the cookies to spread too much- which we don't want.
