Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

Yes, you read that right - Oreo stuffed chocolate chip cookies! After spending too many hours on Pinterest, I saw several recipes for this new "trendy" dessert, and I could hardly wait to try it myself. If you have a favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe, use it! If not, the one I used was fantastic. I think the name says it all - buy a package of Oreos, wrap cookie dough around them, pop them in the oven, and you have created little pieces of heaven! I went a little overboard on the cookie dough to Oreo ratio, so my cookies were huge, but I certainly didn't complain. Make sure you leave several inches between each cookie when baking, as the dough will spread (this also helps ensure the cookies bake evenly).



OREO STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
printable recipe
1 cup softened butter
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tbsp. vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
10 oz. bag chocolate chips
1 package of Oreo cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Cream butter and sugars until combined.

Add eggs and vanilla.

Finally, add flour, salt, and baking soda. Stir in chocolate chips.

Use a cookie scoop to place equal amounts of dough on the top and bottom of each Oreo cookie. Use your hands to roll the dough smooth and completely cover the edges of each Oreo.

Place on cookie sheet, leaving several inches between each cookie (I only baked 6 at a time).

Bake for 10 minutes or until the tops of the cookies are golden brown.

Allow to cool for 2-3 minutes before removing from pan.

Yields 24 very large cookies.
