Peanut Butter Oreo Cookies (Parent Trap Cookies)
If you are a fan of Oreos and Peanut Butter, these cookies are for you! A black cocoa base cookie filled with peanut butter chips and large oreo chunks finished off with a creamy white chocolate drizzle.
Servings: 20 servings (1/2 cookie per serving)
Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup black cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups peanut butter chips
- 1 1/2 cups chopped double suffed Oreos
- 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Cream together the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Mix for 2 minutes.
- Scrape the sides and add the egg and vanilla. Mix until just combined.
- Stop the mixer and measure out the dry ingredients into the bowl. (The flour, black cocoa, soda and salt.)
- In a separate bowl, measure out the peanut butter chips and chopped Oreos.
- Start the mixer slowly, when the dry ingredients are about halfway incorporated, add in the Reese's chips and Oreo chunks.
- Mix until *just* combined. Do not over mix. The mixture will be pretty dry.
- Portion the dough out into 1/3 cup portions. Lightly pack the dough together, forming the dough into a flattened ball, similar to a hockey puck.
- Repeat with remaining dough.
- Bake at 350° for 12-14 minutes. The cookies will expand slightly and should no longer look wet and glossy in the middle when they come out of the oven.
- Let the cookies sit on the pan for 20 minutes.
- Add the white chocolate chips to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave the white chips for 30 seconds and then stir. Repeat microwaving and stirring until the white chocolate chips are melted smooth.
- Transfer the melted chocolate chips into a small zip top bag. Snip the corner and drizzle on top of the cookies.
- Serve warm.
