Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
Add-ins & Specialty Ingredients
- 2 cups chocolate chips
- Halloween Oreos (number depending on dough scoops, about 24 Oreos)
Instructions
- Prepare the dough: Cream the softened unsalted butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients — all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt — until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips to infuse every bite with melty goodness.
- Chill the dough: Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. This firms up the dough, making it easier to wrap around the Oreos without sticky messes.
- Stuff the Oreos: Take a small scoop of dough and flatten it in your palm. Place a Halloween Oreo in the center, then gently mold more dough around it until fully encased. Ensure no Oreo is exposed to prevent melting or burning during baking.
- Bake the cookies: Place the stuffed cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them a couple of inches apart to allow for spreading. Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until edges turn lightly golden. Let cookies cool briefly on the sheet before transferring to a rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Use cold dough to prevent flattening and keep the Oreo center intact during baking.
- Do not overfill; one Oreo per cookie is ideal to avoid dough tearing or filling leakage.
- Shape all dough balls roughly the same size for even baking.
- Check baking time carefully; underbake slightly for softer cookies with gooey centers.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
