Servings 22 Cookies

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter browned and cooled
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1 egg yolk room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 300 g all-purpose flour
  • 18 Oreo Thins plus extra for topping

Instructions
 

Step 1: Brown the Butter

  • In a light-colored pan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown bits form at the bottom. Remove from heat and let cool for 40-45 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare the Cookie Dough

  • In a mixing bowl, beat the cooled brown butter with granulated and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Mix in the egg until fully incorporated, then add the egg yolk and vanilla extract.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to avoid overmixing.

Step 3: Assemble the Cookies

  • Take 80g of cookie dough and flatten it slightly.
  • Place an Oreo Thin in the center and wrap the dough around it, fully encasing the Oreo.
  • Cut another Oreo into chunks and press a few pieces on top of the dough ball.

Step 4: Chill the Dough

  • Refrigerate the cookie dough balls for at least 1 hour (or up to 72 hours for deeper flavor).

Step 5: Bake the Cookies

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place 4 cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring space between them.
  • Bake for 13-14 minutes until the edges are golden brown but the centers remain soft.
  • Let cool on the baking sheet for 3-4 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy!

Notes

Pro Tips for the Best Oreo Stuffed Cookies

  • Use Oreo Thins – They provide the perfect ratio of cookie to filling without being too thick.
  • Don’t Skip the Chill Time – Chilling helps the cookies maintain their shape and enhances their flavor.
  • Experiment with Flavors – Try using flavored Oreos (like peanut butter or mint) for a fun twist!
  • Store Properly – Keep leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze the dough for up to 3 months.
