Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature (substitute: ¾ cup coconut oil for dairy-free option)
1 cup granulated sugar (substitute: coconut sugar for refined sugar-free version)
1 cup brown sugar, packed (substitute: coconut brown sugar or date sugar)
2 large eggs at room temperature (substitute: 2 flax eggs for vegan alternative)
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract (substitute: almond extract for nutty variation)
3 cups all-purpose flour (substitute: gluten-free flour blend for celiac-friendly cookies)
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
1 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (Oreos work perfectly)
1 cup white chocolate chips (substitute: sugar-free white chocolate chips or vanilla chips)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar for 3-4 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually add to wet mixture until just combined.
Gently fold in crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and white chocolate chips.
Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop, place dough balls on prepared sheets 2 inches apart.
Bake 10–12 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft.
Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Ensure butter is at room temperature to prevent dense cookies. Avoid overmixing after adding flour to maintain a soft texture.
