Ingredients

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ¾ cup white sugar
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• ½ cup chocolate chips
• 1 ½ sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
• ½ (14 ounce) package chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with aluminum foil.

Step 2

Beat butter, brown sugar, and white sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed for at least 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add eggs, vanilla, and cinnamon; beat on low speed until incorporated and fluffy, about 1 minute.

Step 3

Scrape down the sides of the bowl again. Mix in 1 cup of flour and baking powder until incorporated. Fold in 1 cup of flour. Fold in remaining 1 cup flour with chocolate chips until nicely incorporated.

Step 4

To form cookies, press 1 tablespoon batter between your hands and flatten slightly. Put an Oreo® on top and add another tablespoon dough on top of the Oreo®. Shape dough softly around the cookie to sandwich it. Place on a prepared baking sheet. Repeat to form remaining cookies, spacing them 1 inch apart on the sheets.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 15 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool completely, 20 to 30 minutes.
