Cookies and Cream Cookies


I recently made some chocolate cookies and cream cookies that I totally loved.  I decided that I needed to make a traditional vanilla version to complement the chocolate.  So, I took my blond chocolate chip cookie dough recipe and added mini chocolate chips and chopped up Oreos to it.  I love taking a recipe and just changing up the add-ins to create something new.

Cookies and Cream Cookies


3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, room temperature
1/4 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 Tablespoons maple syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 eggs
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup chocolate chips
15 Oreo cookies, cut in quarters

Preheat the oven to 375F.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cream together the butter, shortening, sugar, syrup, and vanilla extract until light and smooth.  Beat in the eggs.  Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, and beat until combined.  Stir in the chocolate chips and Oreos.

Using a cookie scoop, scoop the dough and place on the prepared baking sheet.  Bake for 10 to 11 minutes, or until the cookies are just barely browned on the edges and top.  Remove from the oven and let cool for several minutes on the pan.  Transfer cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.  Makes about 28 cookies.

Enjoy!  -Cardamommy
