Ingredients Notes

Creating these Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies is easy, and you likely already have most of the ingredients. Here’s a closer look at what makes each component special:

• Butter: Softened unsalted butter gives these cookies their rich, chewy texture. Be sure it’s softened for easy mixing.
• Brown Sugar and Granulated Sugar: A combination of sugars provides the perfect balance of sweetness and chewiness. Brown sugar adds a hint of caramel flavor and extra moisture.
• Eggs: Eggs help bind the ingredients and create a soft, fluffy cookie dough. Let them come to room temperature for the best results.
• Vanilla Extract: Adds depth and enhances the cookie flavor. Use pure vanilla extract for the best taste.
• All-Purpose Flour: Flour provides structure to the cookies. For extra-thick cookies, try adding an extra tablespoon of flour.
• Baking Soda and Salt: These help the cookies rise and balance the sweetness.
• Chocolate Chips: Semi-sweet chocolate chips add the classic chocolatey flavor to the cookie dough. Feel free to mix in milk or dark chocolate chips for extra richness.
• Oreos: The star of the show! Classic Oreos are perfect for this recipe, but you can get creative with Double-Stuf, Golden, or flavored Oreos.

You’ll also need a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper and a cookie scoop to keep the cookies evenly sized.

How To Make Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

Making these Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies is easy and fun! Follow these simple steps for the ultimate stuffed cookie experience.

1. Make the Cookie Dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
3. Stuff the Cookies: Use a cookie scoop to form a ball of dough, then flatten it in your hands. Place an Oreo in the center, then wrap the dough around it, making sure the Oreo is fully covered. Add more dough if needed, and roll into a ball. Repeat with remaining dough and Oreos.
4. Bake: Place the stuffed cookies on a prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each one. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
5. Serve: Enjoy these cookies warm for a gooey, melty center, or let them cool completely for a more solid texture.

With about 20 minutes of prep and baking time, you’ll have a batch of thick, chewy Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies ready to enjoy! These are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven when the chocolate is melty and delicious.

Storage Options

If you somehow have leftovers, these Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies store well for later enjoyment.

• Room Temperature: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. This keeps them soft and chewy.
• Refrigerator: You can also refrigerate the cookies for up to 1 week. Just let them come to room temperature or microwave them for a few seconds before serving to get that fresh-out-of-the-oven taste.
• Freezer: Freeze the unbaked, stuffed cookie dough balls in a single layer on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag. Bake straight from frozen, adding an extra 1-2 minutes to the baking time.

Variations and Substitutions

These Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies are easy to customize to your taste. Here are a few fun variations:

• Double-Stuffed Oreos: Use Double-Stuf Oreos for even more filling. It makes the cookies a bit thicker and adds an extra layer of creaminess.
• Flavored Oreos: Try seasonal or flavored Oreos, like Mint, Peanut Butter, or Red Velvet. Each one will give the cookie a unique twist that’s fun to experiment with.
• Chocolate Lovers: Add an extra handful of chocolate chips or use chunks for a double chocolate experience. You can also drizzle melted chocolate over the finished cookies for added decadence.
• Peanut Butter Twist: Mix a few tablespoons of peanut butter into the cookie dough for a peanut butter chocolate chip cookie base, or use Peanut Butter Oreos for a delicious combo.
• Vegan Option: Substitute the butter with plant-based butter, use a flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 3 tablespoons water per egg), and ensure your chocolate chips and Oreos are dairy-free. This gives you a delicious vegan version of these cookies!
