Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 cups (360g) all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter (2 sticks, room temperature)
  • 1 ¼ cups (267g) brown sugar
  • ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Coloring and Mix-ins

  • Royal blue gel food coloring
  • Electric blue gel food coloring
  • Violet gel food coloring
  • 2/3 cup (113g) white chocolate chips (divided)
  • 2/3 cup chopped Chips Ahoy cookies (mini cookies recommended)
  • 2/3 cup chopped Oreos

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350º F and line a cookie sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Set aside this dry mixture for later.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a larger bowl, beat the room temperature butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium speed for 2 minutes until the mixture is fluffy and pale, which incorporates air for tender cookies.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract for about 30 seconds until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Incorporate Dry Ingredients and Color: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture on low speed. Partway through mixing, add royal blue, electric blue, and violet gel food coloring to achieve a deep, true blue dough. Continue until the dough is thick and uniformly colored.
  6. Mix in Cookie Pieces and White Chocolate: Add ⅓ cup of white chocolate chips, chopped Chips Ahoy cookies, and chopped Oreos. Mix gently by hand to distribute these mix-ins evenly without overworking the dough.
  7. Shape Cookies: Use a cookie scoop to portion about 2 tablespoons of dough each. Roll into smooth balls and press the remaining white chocolate chips, Chips Ahoy cookies, and Oreos onto the outside of each dough ball for an extra crunchy exterior. Place about 8 cookies per sheet, ensuring space for spreading.
  8. Bake: Bake the cookies on the prepared sheet for 10-12 minutes. Remove them from the oven just before the edges start to brown for a soft, chewy center.
  9. Cool: Let the cookies cool for 15 minutes on the baking sheet to firm up before transferring them to a wire rack or serving.

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter and eggs for better mixing and texture.
  • Adjust the amount of gel food coloring slightly to reach your preferred intensity of blue.
  • Bake one sheet at a time for even oven heat distribution and consistent baking.
  • Cooling cookies on the baking sheet helps them set and prevents breaking when transferring.
  • Feel free to substitute the mix-in cookies with other favorite crunchy chocolate cookies.
