Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter (slightly softened)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 1 & 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tbsp corn starch
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Add-ins
- 2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (plus more for topping)
- 9 Halloween Oreo cookies
- 1/4 cup Halloween sprinkles
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat mat for easy cookie removal.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a medium bowl, cream together the slightly softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour, corn starch, baking soda, and salt to the wet mixture, stirring just until all ingredients are incorporated. Avoid overmixing to keep cookies tender.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips and Sprinkles: Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and Halloween sprinkles, distributing evenly throughout the dough.
- Assemble Cookies: Using a large cookie scoop (about 1/4 cup), scoop dough and flatten it in your palm. Place one Halloween Oreo in the center, then fold the dough over the Oreo, sealing it completely by rolling it into a ball.
- Bake: Place the stuffed dough balls on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. The cookies may appear slightly underbaked or gooey in the center — this ensures a soft and chewy texture.
- Add Chocolate Chip Topping and Cool: Immediately after removing from the oven, press extra chocolate chips on top of each cookie. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Ensure butter is only slightly softened to avoid greasy dough.
- Do not overmix the dough once dry ingredients are added to prevent tough cookies.
- Use a large cookie scoop for uniform sized cookies that perfectly envelop the Oreo.
- Press extra chocolate chips on warm cookies for an appealing melted topping.
- Cookies will continue to set as they cool, so slightly underbaking is intentional.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
