Mid-week Dessert: Chocolate Chip Cookies with Oreos inside

Full disclosure--I made these cookies (and wrote this post) over the weekend, and just didn’t get around to posting it until today.

These are the perfect dessert if you, like me, are a total cookie and oreo junkie!  And they’re pretty easy, too.

First, prepare the cookie dough using your favorite recipe.  I like this recipe from Post Punk Kitchen.  I also used vegan white chocolate chips in place of regular vegan chocolate chips.  I suggest doubling the cookie dough recipe, as wrapping the dough around the oreos means the recipe will make far fewer cookies than usual.

Then, assemble the cookies.  Carefully wrap the dough around the oreos.  This is easier if the dough is a little thicker than you’d usually have it for cookies, so you may want to add a bit more flour than usual.  Make sure the oreo is entirely encased in the cookie dough.

Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes, or until they’re as done as you like them.  Personally, I like my cookies to be just the other side of raw, but I know that’s not for everyone. 

Enjoy, and try not to eat them all at one sitting!
