Oreo Cookies

These cookies are really easy to make.  They are super soft when they're done and after a few days if you havn't eaten them they kinda fall apart but def good.  I didn't use the cornstarch because for some reason i think i'm allowed to leave ingredients out of recipes which usually gets me in trouble!

Cookies and Cream Cookies

Yield: about 14 medium cookies

  • 1-1/4 cups + 2 Tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour (165 g)
  • 1 Tablespoon cornstarch (8 g)
  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup light butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar (144 g)
  • 1-3 Tablespoons egg white, or until dough comes together
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 5-6 Oreo cookies, crushed

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line two or three baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together flour, cornstarch, cream of tartar, and baking soda in a medium bowl.
  3. With an electric mixer, beat together butter and sugar on medium speed just until smooth. Add egg white and vanilla.
  4. Add flour mixture and stir until combined. Stir in Oreos. Refrigerate dough 10 minutes.
  5. Using an ice cream scoop, distribute six evenly-spaced dough portions on one baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes (I found 11 minutes to be about perfect, and keep in mind, they should be slightly underbaked). Let cookies cool on pan until set.
  6. Repeat step 5 with remaining dough, refrigerating dough between each batch.
