Chocolate Oreo Cookies
Chocolate Oreo Cookies mix traditional cookie dough ingredients with cocoa powder and chopped Oreo cookies, creating a rich, chocolatey cookie that’s enhanced with semisweet chocolate chips for extra texture and flavor. Chilling the dough before baking helps maintain shape, resulting in cookies that have set edges and soft centers. This recipe balances familiar chocolate and Oreo flavors in a chewy cookie format.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup butter softened
- 1/4 cup shortening
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 egg large
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup cocoa powder unsweetened
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 salt
- 2 cups Oreo cookies coarsely chopped
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat butter and shortening together until well-combined.
- Add sugars and beat until well-combined.
- Mix in eggs and vanilla. Scrape down bowl as needed.
- Add flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Stir in just until combined.
- Add chopped cookies and chocolate chips.
- Stir in just until combined.
- Cover and chill dough for 30 minutes.
- Scoop dough by 1.5 tablespoon scoops and place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-11 minutes. The edges should be set but the middles should look soft and slightly underdone.
- Cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes.
- Transfer to a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.
Notes
- Use room temperature butter that is soft without being melted to prevent cookies from spreading too much.
- Measure flour by sifting or stirring first, then lightly spooning into the cup and leveling to avoid overpacking.
- Experiment with different Oreo varieties or types of chocolate chips to customize flavor and texture.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet before transferring to a rack so they set properly and don’t fall apart.
