Can I use store-bought cookie dough instead of making it from scratch?

Yes, you can use refrigerated cookie dough as a shortcut. The cookies won’t taste quite as rich as homemade, but it saves time. Just flatten the dough slightly, wrap it around the Oreo, and bake as directed.

How do I keep Halloween Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies soft?

The key is to avoid overbaking. Remove the cookies when the edges are golden and the centers still look soft. Let them cool on the baking sheet before moving to a rack. Storing cookies in an airtight container with a slice of bread also keeps them soft for days.

Can I freeze these cookies or the dough?

Absolutely. Freeze wrapped dough balls with Oreos inside for up to three months. Bake straight from the freezer—just add a couple of minutes to the baking time. You can also freeze baked cookies once cooled; thaw at room temperature when ready to serve.

What can I substitute if I don’t have Double Stuff Oreos?

Regular Oreos work perfectly, as do seasonal versions like Halloween Oreos with orange crème. You can also experiment with flavored varieties such as peanut butter or mint. Any cookie with a creamy center adds the same surprise factor inside the chocolate chip dough.

Halloween Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies are oversized, soft, and chewy cookies with a hidden Oreo center. Perfect for parties, bake sales, or family treat nights, these festive cookies combine chocolate chip dough and creamy Oreos for a fun and indulgent dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter

3/4 cup packed light brown sugar

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 package Double Stuff Oreo cookies

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy.

Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients and mix until combined.

Fold in chocolate chips evenly.

Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough, flatten slightly, and place an Oreo in the center. Wrap dough completely around the Oreo and seal edges.

Place cookies 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets.

Bake 12-14 minutes until edges are golden and centers are soft.

Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Notes

Ensure the dough fully covers each Oreo to prevent leakage.

Chill dough for 20-30 minutes for easier handling and thicker cookies.

Do not overbake; cookies should be soft in the center.

Add festive sprinkles or drizzled chocolate for Halloween presentation.

Cookies can be frozen as dough balls or baked cookies for later enjoyment.
