Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (heat-treated)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 cup crushed Oreo cookies (about 10 cookies)
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup milk (or non-dairy milk)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Blue food coloring (gel works best)
Instructions
- Heat-Treat the Flour: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the flour evenly on a baking sheet. Bake for 5-7 minutes to kill any potential bacteria. Let the flour cool completely before using to ensure safety since the dough is not baked.
- Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the milk and vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly to combine all wet ingredients smoothly.
- Add the Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the heat-treated flour and salt to the wet mixture. Stir well until a smooth dough forms, making sure there are no lumps.
- Color the Dough: Add a few drops of blue food coloring to the dough. Mix thoroughly until the color is evenly distributed. Add more food coloring if necessary to reach your desired vibrant blue shade reminiscent of Cookie Monster.
- Add Mix-Ins: Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips and crushed Oreo cookies to incorporate them evenly throughout the dough, giving it a delightful texture and classic cookie flavor.
- Serve: Scoop the edible cookie dough into bowls or roll it into small balls to create bite-sized treats. Enjoy immediately for the freshest taste or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to five days.
