Delight in these classic Cookies & Cream Cookies, bursting with chunks of Oreo cookies and creamy white chocolate chips. Soft, chewy, and perfectly sweet, these homemade treats are easy to make and ideal for dessert or any time you crave a nostalgic cookie experience.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 18 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper to ensure cookies don’t stick and bake evenly.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well combined.
  3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Incorporate eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure they blend smoothly, then stir in the vanilla extract for flavor.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, breaking up any lumps to create an even mixture.
  5. Mix Dry and Wet Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing gently just until the dough comes together without overworking it.
  6. Fold in Oreo Chunks and White Chocolate Chips: Carefully fold in the chopped Oreo cookies and white chocolate chips so they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Prepare Baking Sheets: Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading during baking.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden and the centers are set but still soft.
  9. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to firm up, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Substitute white chocolate chips with milk or dark chocolate chips for a different flavor profile.
  • For extra crunchy cookies, chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before baking.
  • Ensure butter is softened to room temperature for optimal creaming and cookie texture.
  • Do not overmix after adding dry ingredients to keep cookies tender.
