Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tsp royal blue gel food dye
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup oreo pieces
- 3/4 cup chips ahoy pieces
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch. Set aside.
- Blend 6 Oreos and 6 Chips Ahoy cookies into small and medium pieces using a food processor, then set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla extract, eggs, and royal blue food dye.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and combine using a rubber spatula until just mixed. Incorporate the Oreo pieces, Chips Ahoy pieces, and chocolate chips.
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Chill the dough for 10 minutes to aid in spreading.
- Scoop the cookie dough onto the cookie sheets, placing 6 balls per sheet.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes until the edges appear set, noting they won't have a golden color due to the blue dye.
- After baking, top each cookie with an Oreo piece, chips Ahoy piece, and extra chocolate chips. Allow them to rest on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Notes
For best results, ensure your butter is fully melted but not hot when mixing with other ingredients.
You can adjust the amount of food dye for a deeper or lighter blue shade, depending on your preference.
Let the cookies cool completely for enhanced flavor before serving.
