Tips for Success
To achieve the best results with your cookies, make sure your butter is softened but not melted. This helps create a light and fluffy texture in the dough, which is essential for thick cookies. Additionally, be cautious not to overmix the dough once you add the dry ingredients; mixing just until combined will ensure your cookies remain tender.
For an extra touch, consider adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the cookies before baking. This contrast between sweet and salty enhances the overall flavor profile and makes each cookie even more enjoyable. Baking them in batches can also help you manage the baking time and keep the cookies fresh and warm.
Ingredients
For the Cookies
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Make sure to gather all your ingredients before starting to ensure a smooth baking process!
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Make the Cookie Dough
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract.
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in the white chocolate chips.
Assemble the Cookies
Take a spoonful of cookie dough and flatten it in your hand. Place an Oreo cookie in the center and wrap the dough around it, forming a ball. Repeat with remaining dough and Oreos.
Bake the Cookies
Place the cookie balls on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden. Allow them to cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Enjoy your Thick Oreo Stuffed White Chocolate Chip Cookies warm or at room temperature!
Storage and Freezing
To keep your Thick Oreo Stuffed White Chocolate Chip Cookies fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They can last for up to one week, though they are best enjoyed within the first few days for maximum freshness and flavor.
If you want to make a larger batch, consider freezing the cookie dough. Simply prepare the dough and form the cookie balls as instructed. Place them on a baking sheet to freeze individually, then transfer them to a zip-top bag for long-term storage. When you're ready to bake, just add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time for frozen dough.
Variations to Try
While the classic Oreo and white chocolate combination is undeniably delicious, feel free to experiment with other flavors. Try using flavored Oreos, such as mint or peanut butter, for a unique twist. You can also swap the white chocolate chips for dark chocolate or milk chocolate chips, depending on your preference.
For a more decadent experience, add a drizzle of melted chocolate on top of the cooled cookies or sprinkle them with crushed Oreos for added texture and flavor. These variations can elevate your cookies and make each batch a delightful surprise.
