Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter, slightly softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 & 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Add-ins and Decorations

  • 2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)
  • 9 Halloween Oreos
  • 1/4 cup Halloween sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a medium mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well blended.
  3. Add Egg and Vanilla: Stir in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until the batter is smooth and fully combined.
  4. Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt to the wet mixture, stirring gently just until the dough comes together. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
  5. Mix in Chocolate Chips and Sprinkles: Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and Halloween sprinkles evenly throughout the dough.
  6. Shape and Stuff Cookies: Use a large cookie scoop (about 1/4 cup of dough) to scoop dough portions. Flatten each portion in your hand, place one Halloween Oreo in the center, then carefully fold the dough around the Oreo and roll to seal completely, ensuring the cookie is fully enclosed.
  7. Bake the Cookies: Arrange the stuffed cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. The cookies may look slightly underbaked or gooey in the middle, which is perfect for a soft texture.
  8. Add Toppings and Cool: Immediately after removing from the oven, sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top of each cookie. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to set, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • The cookies will appear underdone in the center right out of the oven, but they will continue baking as they cool, resulting in a soft, chewy texture.
  • Make sure to fully seal the cookie dough around the Oreo to prevent any leakage during baking.
  • Use a cookie scoop to ensure evenly sized cookies which bake uniformly.
  • For a festive twist, customize the sprinkles to match your preferred holiday or party theme.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
