Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 cup mini Oreos, crushed
Blue food coloring (gel preferred)
Instructions
- Prep the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Mix Everything Together: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Add Food Coloring: Add blue food coloring to the dough, a little at a time, until you achieve the desired shade of blue.
- Fold in Add-Ins: Gently fold in the semisweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and crushed mini Oreos.
- Form the Cookies: Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll it into a ball. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each ball slightly with the palm of your hand.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve: Enjoy your delicious Cookie Monster cookies!
Notes
For the best results, use gel food coloring to achieve a vibrant blue hue without altering the dough’s consistency.
