If you’ve never heard of Crumbl Cookies it’s a cookie shop specializing in unique cookies with a rotating menu each week. One of those cookies is a Chocolate ft. Oreo cookie. Unfortunately, I don’t live near a Crumbl Cookies so I’ve never tasted theirs but knew I wanted to try my own version as chocolate and Oreos are two of my favorites!
What we have is a chocolate cookie made with Oreos and topped with a buttercream frosting and Oreo cookie crumbles and it’s one of my favorite cookies I’ve made. They’re soft and taste like Oreos and are the perfect combination. If you love the taste of Oreos or cookies and cream then these are for you!
Ingredients:
Cookies:
- Butter
- Brown Sugar
- Granulated Sugar
- Egg + Egg Yolk
- Corn Syrup
- Vanilla Extract
- Oreos
- All-Purpose Flour
- Dark Cocoa Powder (can use regular if you don’t have dark)
- Cornstarch
- Baking Soda
- Salt
Buttercream Frosting:
- Butter
- Powdered Sugar
- Vanilla Extract
- Heavy Whipping Cream
How to Make Chocolate ft. Oreo Cookies:
Preheat your oven to 350º.
Start by crushing your Oreos in a blender or food processor and sit aside.
Next, cream the butter, packed brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a stand mixer or with a hand mixer until fully combined.
Add the egg, egg yolk, corn syrup and vanilla extract and mix.
Once incorporated, add in the crushed Oreos, flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt and mix until fully combined.
Take approximately 4 tbsp’s of dough and form into a ball. Place onto a cookie sheet (I use parchment paper.) Using your palm, lightly flatten the cookies until they’re about half an inch thick.
If needed, cup your hands and round the edges of the cookies to ensure a round cookie once baked.
Be sure not to overcrowd the cookie sheet as these cookies will expand while baking. I put three per row, six per tray, evenly spaced. This recipe will yield approximately 14 cookies. You can bake multiple batches as needed.
Bake cookies for approximately 8 minutes. All ovens will bake differently, so I’d suggest checking your cookies at the 6 minute mark. You’ll know they’re done baking once the top no longer looks “wet” and the edges will start to crack. Be sure not to overbake.
Remove from oven when done and let sit on cookie tray for at least 5-10 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
How to Make Buttercream Frosting:
While the cookies are cooling, make your buttercream frosting.
Start by mixing your softened butter until light and fluffy.
Slowly add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and combine.
Add in the heavy whipping cream until reaching your desired consistency. It took approximately 3-4 tbsp’s for me, but you can adjust as needed. Add the heavy whipping cream slowly and add less if it’s beginning to look too thin or more if it’s too thick. You want the buttercream to be thick but still easily spreadable.
Assembling the Cookies:
Using an icing spatula or a butter knife, take the buttercream and spread generously on each cookie, starting in the middle and spreading towards the edges. Repeat until each cookie has been frosted.
Crumble a handful of Oreos and spread the crumbles on top of each cookie. You want varying sized pieces of the Oreo and to sprinkle evenly on the cookies.
And you’re done! Enjoy!
How to Store Cookies:
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for about three days or in the fridge for up to a week.
Can I Eat Reheat the Cookies?:
Yes! It is completely a personal preference, but my mom and husband love these warmed. To achieve that fresh out of the oven taste, heat your oven to 350º and heat the cookies in the oven for 3 minutes. The buttercream will melt slightly and the cookies will be nice and warm as if they were just baked.
You can eat these at room temperature as well if that’s your preference. If you’re storing them in the fridge just remove from the fridge and let come to room temp before enjoying!
