¾ cup of Oreo pieces (6 broken cookies)
11 -
1 ½ cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
12 -
½ cup of finely crushed Oreo crumbs (from 5 blended cookies)
# Instructions:
01 -
In a bowl, incorporate together the flour, salt, and baking soda. Blend 5 Oreo cookies into a powdery crumb and measure out ½ cup. Break apart 6 Oreo cookies into smaller pieces.

Whip the butter and sugars in a bowl until they become airy and creamy. Add in the vanilla extract, then mix in the egg and extra yolk until it’s all smooth.
03 -
Gradually fold in your dry mix. Stir in the chocolate chips, the Oreo crumbs, and the cookie chunks. Set your dough to chill for around 40 minutes.

Turn the oven to 350°F to preheat. Shape the dough into 3oz balls and place six balls on a baking sheet. Freeze the tray while the oven heats up. Keep the leftover dough chilled in the fridge.

Pop them in the oven for 13 to 15 minutes. Wait until the edges turn golden but the middles still feel soft. Let them sit on the tray for about 4 minutes.

If necessary, shape the cookies using a biscuit cutter. Top with extra crumbs, chocolate chips, and Oreo bits. Let them chill on a cooling rack until firm.
