Cookies and Cream Cookies Recipe


  • Author: Sarah White

Description

Soft, crunchy Cookies and Cream Cookies loaded with Oreo bits and white chocolate—indulgent and perfect for dessert lovers.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ⅔ cups all‑purpose flour, lightly spooned and leveled

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened slightly but still cool

  • ⅓ cup packed light brown sugar, fresh and soft

  • ½ cup granulated sugar

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • ½ cup white chocolate chips or chunks, plus extra for topping if desired

  • 10 Oreos, chopped


Instructions

  1. Preheat & prepare
    Preheat your oven to 175 °C (350 °F). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

  2. Combine dry ingredients
    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, kosher salt, and cornstarch. Set aside.

  3. Cream butter and sugars
    In a mixing bowl, beat the softened (cool but pliable) unsalted butter with the light brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This takes about 2‑3 minutes on medium speed.

  4. Add egg and vanilla
    Add the large egg and vanilla extract to the butter‑sugar mixture. Beat until fully incorporated, scraping down bowl sides as needed.

  5. Incorporate dry ingredients
    Gradually add the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix, to avoid tough cookies.

  6. Fold in the mix‑ins
    Gently fold in the chopped Oreos and white chocolate chips (or chunks). If you want extra chocolate on top, reserve a few chips or chunks to press into the tops just before baking.

  7. Portion the dough
    Use a cookie scoop or spoon to form dough balls of about 1½ tablespoons per cookie. Place them on prepared baking sheets, leaving about 5 cm (2 in) between each to allow for spreading.

  8. Bake
    Bake in the preheated oven for 10‑12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden but centers still look soft.

  9. Cool
    Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes

For best texture, make sure butter is softened but not melted—cool and soft gives structure.

Don’t overbake; pull when edges are set but centers just soft—they firm up while cooling.

Chopping Oreos not too fine preserves crunch; mixing too much or pressing down too much can make texture dense.

Using cornstarch gives tenderness in the crumb—don’t skip it.

If you like gooey white chocolate, press a few extra chips into dough tops just as they come out of oven.
