Ingredients
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
12 Oreo cookies (regular or Double Stuf)
Directions
- Step 1: Make the Cookie Dough
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips gently to avoid overmixing.
- Step 2: Assemble the Cookies
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough and flatten it slightly in your palm.
- Place an Oreo cookie in the center and wrap the dough around it, ensuring the Oreo is fully encased.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space between them.
- Step 3: Bake
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges and slightly soft in the center.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Dough Texture: The dough should be firm enough to wrap around the Oreo. If it’s too sticky, chill for 15 minutes.
- Oreos: Double Stuf adds extra creaminess but works just as well with regular Oreos.
- Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Tips for Perfect Oreo Inside Cookie:
- Chill the Dough: Chilling prevents cookies from spreading too much during baking.
- Choose the Right Oreos: Experiment with flavored Oreos like Birthday Cake or Mint for variety.
- Seal the Edges: Ensure no Oreo peeks out to prevent it from burning.
- Use a Cookie Scoop: This helps create uniform cookies that bake evenly.
- Watch the Bake Time: Slightly underbake for soft, chewy centers.
Recipe Variants:
- Peanut Butter Twist: Add ½ cup of peanut butter to the dough and use Peanut Butter Oreos.
- Triple Chocolate: Use chocolate cookie dough and fill with chocolate-filled Oreos.
- Mini Bites: Use mini Oreos and smaller scoops of dough for bite-sized treats.
- Seasonal Flair: Try seasonal Oreo flavors for festive cookies (e.g., Pumpkin Spice or Peppermint).
