Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tsp royal blue gel food dye, i used americolor
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup oreo pieces, 6 whole oreos
- 3/4 cup chips ahoy pieces, 6 cookies
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch. Set aside.
- Using a food processor, blend 6 Oreos into small pieces and set aside. Repeat with 6 Chips Ahoy cookies.
- In a larger bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla, eggs, and royal blue food dye until well combined.
- Incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a rubber spatula until just combined.
- Fold in the Oreo pieces, Chips Ahoy pieces, and chocolate chips into the dough.
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes to reduce spreading during baking.
- Scoop the dough using a large cookie scoop and place 6 cookie balls on each cookie sheet.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes until edges look set; the cookies will not turn golden due to the blue coloring.
- As soon as they come out of the oven, top each cookie with an Oreo piece, a Chips Ahoy piece, and extra chocolate chips. Allow cookies to cool on the hot pans for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
Notes
Cookies are blue in color, so they won’t show a golden hue when baked. Bake just until edges are set for the best results.
Using room temperature eggs helps the mixture blend better and results in a softer cookie.
