Cookie Monster Cookies
My cookie monster cookies are so soft and chewy. They're stuffed with melty chocolate chips, Oreos, AND Chips Ahoy. These are one of the best cookies I've ever made.

I love Cookie Monster and have already shared several treats inspired by him on the blog including ice cream, cake, and cupcakes. I grew up watching Sesame street so these bring back fun nostalgic memories. I'm also a cookie addict so these were a no-brainer. They're packed with chocolate chips, and 2 kinds of cookie crumbles. These are sure to satisfy even you're hungriest cookie monster. Try them for birthday parties, lunch box treats or as an afterschool snack with a big cold glass of milk.
Why This Recipe Works
- They're Soft and Chewy: Brown sugar contains molasses which adds moisture to our dough.
- They Don't Require Any Hard to Find Ingredients Or Expensive Equipment: No mixer required!
- They're Stuffed Full Of Good Things: If you like cookies that aren't stingy on mix-ins, these are for you!
Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips
- Butter: Allow butter to soften at room temperature for 30-60 minutes. If you're short on time try cubing it up into smaller pieces. Avoid the microwave as melted butter can make cookies spread.
- Do not use margarine. It has a high water content and less flavor.
- Eggs: Bring eggs to room temperature for ~30 minutes to help them mix in smoothly.
- Flour: Measure flour by spooning it into a measuring cup. Dipping your cup in the flour will result in too much which leads to a dry dense cookie.
- Baking Soda: Replace it every 6-12 months as it can lose its potency.
- Oreos: I used Double Stuf.
- Chips Ahoy: Make sure you use a crunchy variety of cooke so they'll hold their own in the dough. Famous Amos would also work.
- Food Coloring: I opted for gel food coloring which is more concentrated leading to a brighter color. It also adds less liquid to the dough.
A Sprinkle Of Food Science
Creaming butter and sugar incorporates air into the batter which results in a light and fluffy cookie. It also helps them rise!
How To Make Cookie Monster Cookies

Store Cookies With A Slice of Bread
Store with a piece of bread to help keep them nice and soft.
FAQs
The edges should look golden brown. It is okay if they still look a bit wet in the center. They'll continue to firm up as they cool. This is called carryover baking.
Krystle's Tips
- Use a Cookie Scoop: This ensures even sized cookies that bake at the same rate.
- Don't Overbake: Bake until the edges are set. Overbaking leads to a dry cookie.
- Cool on the Pan: If you try to remove them right away they'll fall apart.
- Cool Your Pan: Cool the pan for around 5 minutes before refilling it with cookie dough.
- If your dough is sticky and hard to work with try chilling it for 30-60 minutes.
A Sprinkle Of Food Science
Don't Overmix: Mix until the flour just disappears. Overmixing will cause too much gluten to form leading to a tough cookie.
