Full Recipe: 

Ingredients

• 120 g (½ cup) unsalted butter, softened

• 100 g (½ cup) granulated white sugar

• 50 g (¼ cup) light brown sugar

• 1 large egg, at room temperature

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 230 g (1¾ cups) all-purpose flour

• 1 tsp baking powder

• ½ tsp baking soda

• A pinch of salt

• 40 g (¼ cup) dark chocolate chips

• 40 g (¼ cup) white chocolate chips

• 30 g (¼ cup) crushed mini chocolate chip cookies

• 3 Oreo cookies, chopped

• 12 Oreo cookies, whole (for stuffing)

• Blue gel food coloring

Directions

1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with the granulated white sugar and light brown sugar until creamy, about 2 minutes.

3. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the egg, vanilla extract, and a few drops of blue gel food coloring. Mix until the dough turns a vibrant blue.

4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until well combined.

5. Add Mix-ins: Gently stir in the dark chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, crushed mini chocolate chip cookies, and chopped Oreos.

6. Shape Dough: Take a portion of the cookie dough and flatten it in the palm of your hand. Place a whole Oreo cookie in the center and fold the dough around it, sealing the edges.

7. Chill Dough: Place the cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

8. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers remain soft.

9. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
