First off, I should mention that these cookies are just plain ridiculous.
Absurd.
Ludicrous.
Outrageous.
And, yes, completely delicious.
I first saw these over at Jenny’s blog Picky Palate (I kinda have a crush on Jenny.) and I knew that my family would go crazy over these cookies. You see, these aren’t just any chocolate chip cookies. There’s a super secret surprise inside. A cookie in the cookie. What’s not to love?
Also? They’re huge. Beyond huge. They’re more or less three cookies in one. You take a ball of cookie dough and smoosh it on the top of an Oreo. Then you take another ball of cookie dough and smoosh it on the bottom of the Oreo. Moosh it all together to seal the Oreo in and there you have it…one ridiculous, absurd, ludicrous, outrageous cookie.
Ingredients
- 2 sticks butter, softened
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 10 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 package Oreo cookies - I used Double Stuf
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugars. Add in the eggs and vanilla and mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add to the wet mixture and combine thoroughly. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Chill the dough for 15 minutes to make it easier to work with and to keep the dough from spreading when baking.
- Using a cookie scoop place one scoop of dough on top of an Oreo cookie. Place another single scoop on the bottom of the Oreo to create a cookie sandwich. Seal the edges together to completely close in the Oreo.
- Place the balls of cookie dough on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 9-13 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack.

beautiful pictures! I saw these on picky palate but just can’t bring myself to make them, no matter how much I want to! Maybe for valentine’s day? You make them look so good!

I’ve been dying at these ever since Jenny posted them. They are SO amazing. I need to make them now.

I loved these when I saw them on Picky Palate and now I’m loving them again.

I saw these at Picky palate too and these cookies are on my to do list. I’ve been waiting until all the Christmas and birthday sweets are out of the house before making something else. I got one of those cookie mix in a jar thingies for Christmas and I’m thinking the oreo stuffed cookie is going to be a great way to use it up.
[Reply]
Oh, I saw these at PP. YUM! They look amazing.

Jenny takes everything that your five year old child self dreamed of a kid and then makes it into reality. Did you see those snickers and kit kat and reeses stuffed cookies she just made? I swear I must have fantasized about something like that throughout my first childhood.
Ridiculous these are. And, of course. Delicious.

Oh my. Dangerous reading today, Karly!
Drool.
[Reply]
Wow, great photos. I’m definitely going to try making these!
[Reply]
Amazing!
[Reply]
Now I know what to bake for my guy for Valentine’s Day. He’s gonna freak. Thanks!
[Reply]
How many cookies would you say this makes?
[Reply]
*Drool*
[Reply]
I’d imagine that stuffing a cookie in a cookie would make for a truly magnificient cookie of all cookies. Oh, but one absolutely must eat it with a cold glass of milk.
Thanks for the recipe! I’m definitely going to try it. Oreos + chocolate chip cookies? That’s really too good to not make.
[Reply]
Saw this on Foodgawker! OMG. I am SO making these!
yummmo.
[Reply]
C,
I ended up with around 16 HUGE cookies!
Enjoy!

[Reply]

Sending this to my printer asap. My little boys will go BONKERS for these awesome cookies. Such a fun recipe!!!
[Reply]
I made these last night. OH MY GOD THEY’RE INCREDIBLE
[Reply]
O! My! Goodness! These should be against the law. But thank goodness they aren’t. I’m not sure if I have the strength to make them and not eat ALL of them…..
[Reply]
These are on my “oh my heck I HAVE to make these” list ever since seeing them over on Picky Palate. So glad to hear you liked them. Will be making these very soon!!!! YUM!
[Reply]
I made these for my co-workers. They were huge and super rich. The most challenging thing for me, though, was it was difficult to make them before putting them on the sheet. The mix was a little messy to try and wrap around the Oreo, and the chocolate chips were big and made it difficult to cover the Oreo. It might have been easier to just wrap the Oreo in the mix, and then throw a few chocolate chips on top.

unhinge jaw, insert awesome cookie.
[Reply]
I saw these on PP too and made them right away! My post on these is coming up tomorrow!
They are delicious and your pics are wonderfuL!
[Reply]
After reading some of the comments I am definitely going to try these out! A couple ideas I thought of… If you used mini chocolate chips instead of full size ones, and cut down to maybe 7 oz of chips the dough wouldn’t have large chunks and would be easier to handle. Also, if you had a nice sharp knife, you could quarter the Oreos and make smaller cookies… food for thought
[Reply]
These are amazing! However, to make them a little more manageable (more for my husband than myself), I used mini Oreos. Same great taste, just a slightly smaller package!
A must try for everyone! Yum!!
[Reply]
These looks absolutly awesome! I will be trying these as soon as possible. And as soon as possible I mean, going to the store to buy some ingredients and start making them as soon as I get back, not even bothering to take off shoes and jacket.
[Reply]
Wow, that looks great and tasty. I would die for that for sure.
Here is another recipe that I like to share with you.

THEY WERE AMAZINGGGG!!!!
BEST. COOKIES. EVER
[Reply]
I’m so glad you used double stuffed. It’s the only way to go!
[Reply]
These scream “danger” to me. I think I need a little adventure in my life right about now
[Reply]
Great recipe!! These cookies are sooo massive. The dough got a bit dry and crumbly, but I still managed to work with it. Using mini chocolate chips worked well – I used a whole bag, I think 12 or 13 oz. The cookies were massive! I made close to 2 dozen. The baking time came out to close to 15 minutes. They just seemed too doughy. When they browned a bit I took them out. They were SO delicious warm. A few hours later after they were completely cooled they were rock hard. I would try microwaving them for a few seconds, but they were a big hit at the party and I have none left!
[Reply]
I think I just died looking at these cookies– and in a good way.
[Reply]
OMG! These cookies are amazing. I made these today and ate one right out of the oven. The oreo inside is so soft and they taste divine. Just one is so huge! Mine came out the size of a small apple. Perfect! Thank you for this fantastic recipe. I did do some stuffed with mini peanut buttercups too, they are all amazing!
[Reply]

[Reply]
Wow! Made these last night and all I can say is “WOW!” They are so yummy! I feel like I’ve made fancy gourmet cookies. I had just one with a huge glass of milk, but that was all I needed to satisfy my craving. So, so good!
[Reply]
I had GREAT success with this recipe. I made a batch of these for some guys I know in a well known Metal band. Whenever I get a chance to see them, I always make them cookies. It’s pretty much expected now!
You can bet I will DEFINITELY be making these again! Thanks for the kick-ass recipe! 
Anyway, I wanted to step up my game so I decided to try these. Let me tell you, they ALL LOST THEIR MINDS!!! All the guys were talking about them- amongst the rest of the bandmembers, crew, and generally any random person that happened to walk by! One of them claimed that I was going to be famous because I invented them!!! LOL! I had to break it to him gently though that I did not infact invent this recipe & that I had found it online.

BIG Father’s Day hit… Thanks!
[Reply]
Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this. You are a genius. We made some for the office and, oh dear heavens, they were the most delicious thing I have ever put in my mouth. Seriously. Better than pizza (and that’s saying something). Thank you!
[Reply]
How much does this yield, i am planning in making these for my foods class.
[Reply]
To all those that have made these cookies before, can you tell me if the Oreo cookie inside gets soft or does it remain crunchy?
Thanks
[Reply]
These are soooo yummy, I made them as a flat warming gift and they were gone in minutes, I defiantly recommend making them they were a big hit with me and my friends after all we are cookie experts
[Reply]
Yummi!
