Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup organic cane sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/2 tablespoon vanilla bean paste
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet regular chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
  • 12-14 original Oreo cookies

Make the Cookie Dough

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, cinnamon, and kosher salt.

In a separate large bowl, vigorously whisk the melted butter with the dark brown sugar and cane sugar until it’s all completely combined.

Whisk in the egg and vanilla bean paste until the mixture is smooth.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and fold with a spatula until you have just a few streaks of flour remaining. Add both types of chocolate chips and fold until they’re mixed in and the flour has disappeared.

Chill and Shape the Cookies

Cover the bowl tightly and let the cookie dough chill in the fridge for at least three hours.

Once the dough is done chilling, get your oven preheating to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

For each cookie, you’ll need two balls of dough. Scoop one ball that’s about 1 1/2 tablespoons and a second, slightly larger one that’s about 2 tablespoons.

Flatten both balls of dough between your palms into little discs. Place an Oreo on top of the smaller disc of dough.

Put the larger piece of dough on top of the Oreo and pinch the edges of the top and bottom pieces of dough together until the Oreo is completely sealed inside. Repeat with the rest of the dough.

Bake the Cookies

Place the stuffed cookies on your prepared baking sheet, leaving about 3 inches of space between them.

Bake for 10-12 minutes. The edges should be set and golden.

Let the cookies cool on the pan for about 5 minutes before you move them to a wire rack to cool the rest of the way.

Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is a straightforward chocolate chip cookie recipe that gets a dense, chewy texture from using melted butter. That chewy base is the perfect thing to wrap around a whole Oreo, giving you a cookie-within-a-cookie situation. The dough comes together quickly without a mixer, but the chill time is important to keep these large cookies from spreading too much.
