Cookies 'n' Cream Cookies

My friend Laura and I thought we should incorporate snacks into our Tuesday night softball league, so I decided to bake some cookies —unfortunately, softball was cancelled this week and I was stuck with 25 cookies!! Luckily, we had our first book club meeting that same night so I brought a bunch with me. If you like the traditional Hershey's Cookies 'n' Cream chocolate bar, you will absolutely love these cookies. The flavour is very similar.

I should note that this recipe does make quite many cookies (~25 large cookies), so you can easily half the recipe and the cookies will turn out equally delicious.


Here's what you'll need:
1 cup salted butter, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cup AP flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 package of oreo cookies (use as many or as little as you'd like)
1 1/2 cup white chocolate chips*

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the oreo cookies in a ziploc bag and crush them into small chunks.

Cream butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until well combined. Add the vanilla, and eggs, one at a time, mixing well.

Combine flour, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl and stir to combine.

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing well. Finally, gently stir the crushed oreo chunks and white chocolate chips into the cookie dough batter until combined.

Place medium to large size balls of cookie dough (think golf ball size or even a little bigger) onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until they are a very light brown colour on top.

Let cool for five minutes, then transfer to a wire rack!

Enjoy :)

*If you don't have white chocolate chips, you can easily substitute milk chocolate chips. I simply prefer the taste of white chocolate chips.
