Chocolate chunks
Chocolate chunks are made of higher quality chocolate and biting into these chunks alongside the cookies makes these perfect.
Ingredients and substitutions for Oreo Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Butter: Unsalted butter is used for the cookie, but if all you have on hand is salted, that works as a fine substitute, just leave out any salt suggested in the recipe.
- Sugar: The brown sugar helps to make the cookies chewy, however, you could substitute or even do a 50/50 mixture of superfine or caster sugar alongside the brown sugar.
- Eggs: The room temperature egg binds and adds structure to our cookies resulting in that soft interior that compliments the sugar and butter.
- Flour: Plain or all purpose flour is best for a nice light cookie crumb.
- Baking powder: This helps our cookies rise so they are not stodgy.
- Baking soda: This helps our cookies rise alongside the baking powder avoiding a heavy dense cookie.
- Chocolate: 56% dark chocolate block was used here because it is less sweet and higher quality than baking chocolate and controls the level of sweetness in the cookies better.
- Oreos: These cookies wouldn’t be complete without authentic Oreos and that deep cocoa cookie and creamy center…crushed into the depth of the cookies and then pushed in chunks onto the top for extra crunch and flavor. Substitute with any of your favorite cream filled cookies here - make these your own!
See recipe card for quantities.
Variations
You can definitely change up the cookies by changing the following:
Other sandwich biscuits: You can crush and add any other sandwich biscuits you have available, however, a softer biscuit similar to Oreo's in texture work best here.
Cookie butter: You could make a batch like these here with cookie butter and crushed biscuits.
Instant coffee: Add a teaspoon or two of instant coffee and omit the crused biscuits to give these a coffee twist.
Double chocolate: Add cocoa powder to the dough to make these extra chocolatey.
Equipment needed to make a batch
Mixing bowl: You’ll need a medium mixing bowl to make the cookie dough.
Greaseproof paper: Lining your baking tray will make getting the soft cookies off easy.
Hand or stand mixer: To whip the dough, this is best done with a mixer to get as much air as possible into the moist ingredients.
Ice Cream Scoop: The scoop used here creates large cookies with a diameter of 6 centimeters / 2.36 inches.
