Description
Bakery-Style Valentine’s Oreo Cookies With Chocolate Drip are thick, soft chocolate cookies packed with crushed Oreo cookies, melty chocolate chips, and festive candy pieces, then finished with a glossy chocolate drizzle for the perfect Valentine’s Day dessert.
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
12 Oreo cookies, roughly crushed
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup pink, red, or white candy-coated chocolates
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate, melted for drizzle
2 teaspoons coconut oil or heavy cream
2 tablespoons extra crushed Oreo cookies for topping
2 tablespoons Valentine sprinkles for topping
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined.
6. Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies, chocolate chips, and candy-coated chocolates.
7. Scoop large portions of dough, about 3 tablespoons each, onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
8. Press a few extra Oreo chunks and candy pieces onto the tops for a bakery-style look.
9. Bake for 11 to 14 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly soft.
10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Melt the semi-sweet chocolate with the coconut oil or heavy cream until smooth.
12. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled cookies, then top with extra crushed Oreos and Valentine sprinkles.
13. Let the chocolate set before serving or storing.
Notes
Chilling the scooped dough for 20 to 30 minutes helps the cookies stay thick and bakery-style.
Do not overbake the cookies because they continue to set as they cool.
For the prettiest finish, add the chocolate drizzle only after the cookies are fully cooled.
