Ingredients for Cookies and Cream Cookies

These chewy cookies are so easy to make with just a handful of pantry staples, plus some extra treats. Here’s what you need:

All-purpose flour

Baking powder

Baking soda

Kosher salt

Granulated sugar

Cream cheese (room temperature)

Salted butter (melted)

Vegetable oil

Milk

Pure vanilla extract

White chocolate chips

Oreo cookies, roughly chopped (see note below)

You can find a detailed list of ingredients plus baking instructions in the printable recipe card at the end of this post!

Recipe Note

I find it best to roughly chop the Oreos as opposed to putting them into a plastic bag and breaking them (which is what I often do to save time!) This way, the pieces will be more defined with the filling mostly intact, as opposed to smashed or crushed. 

How to make Cookies and Cream Cookies

Preheat oven to 350°F, and line a baking sheet or sheets with a sheet of parchment paper.

In a small bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In a mixing bowl (or bowl of a stand mixer), beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and well combined (about 3 minutes).

Add the melted butter, vegetable oil, egg, milk, and vanilla. Mix thoroughly, scraping sides of the bowl as needed. The batter should be smooth and creamy.

Gradually add the flour mixture until just combined. Add the white chocolate chips and Oreo pieces, stirring to distribute evenly.

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, place scoops of dough onto the prepared cookie sheet(s) about an inch apart. They will spread slightly, but not too much.

Bake cookies for 9-11 minutes or until just slightly golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.

FAQS

Can I use flavored Oreos in this recipe?

Yes, you can use any variety of Oreos in these cookies. I think peanut butter, chocolate, and even Golden Oreos would be delicious! And how fun to use holiday-themed Oreos to make cookies for a Halloween or Christmas party?

What other mix-ins work well with these cookies?

Cookies and Cream Cookies taste great with regular semi-sweet chocolate chips too, or you can add nuts like pecans or almonds for a little crunch! Just add ½-¾ cup.

How do I store Cookies and Cream Cookies?

Once the cookies cool completely, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-5 days.

Can I freeze them?

Yes, Cookies and Cream cookies freeze well, making them the perfect cookie to bake ahead and store until you need them to fill out a cookie tray or as a holiday gift! Place the cooled cookies in a freezer bag or airtight container and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Thaw at room temperature for a few hours before serving.

Can I freeze the cookie dough?

Yes, this is a great way to get a start on your holiday baking! Prepare the batter according to the recipe and scoop cookie dough balls as directed. Place the baking sheet in the freezer until the dough is firm (about an hour). Then place the dough balls in a freezer bag and keep frozen for up to 3 months.

How do I bake Cookies and Cream cookies from frozen dough?

Remove the cookie dough balls from the freezer bag and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let them sit for 15-20 minutes while the oven heats to 350 degrees and the dough thaws a bit. Then bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden brown. You may need an extra minute or two, depending on how much the dough thaws before you bake it.
