Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup butter, room temperature/softened
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 8 regular Oreos
Instructions
- Heat Treat the Flour: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread flour evenly on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 5 to 10 minutes, until the flour reaches 160°F. This step is crucial for food safety as it kills any potential bacteria in the raw flour. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before using in the recipe.
- Prepare the Oreos: Add Oreo cookies into a quart size bag. Seal the bag and crush the cookies using a rolling pin or the bottom of a glass until they’re broken into smaller chunks. Don’t crush them too finely—you want visible pieces throughout the cookie dough for texture and appearance.
- Create the Dough Base: Using a mixer, beat butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. This creates the creamy foundation of your cookie dough. Add milk, vanilla extract, and salt to the mixture. Blend until well combined and smooth.
- Incorporate the Flour: Add in the cooled, heat-treated flour and stir on low speed until fully mixed. Be careful not to overmix; stop once all the flour is incorporated into the dough.
- Add the Oreos: Fold in the crumbled Oreo cookies using a spatula. Distribute them evenly throughout the dough to ensure every bite contains some Oreo goodness.
