These Frosted Oreo Cookies have a rich, chocolate cookie base topped with vanilla cream frosting! A copycat Crumbl cookie recipe that tastes even better than the ones from the bakery chain.
Love copycat crumbl cookies? I do, too!
I just had my first one last week and I fell in love with their Classic Pink Sugar Cookie.
I would have tried this Oreo cookie, but it wasn’t on the menu.
SAVE THIS OREO COOKIE RECIPE TO YOUR FAVORITE PINTEREST BOARD!
It’s hard not to love Oreo cookies. While I have to admit that I’ll take a Golden Oreo over the regular Oreos any day, they are still pretty darn delicious. You get chocolate. You get a cream filling. You get the satisfying CRUNCH of the wafer cookie, followed by the soft, sweet vanilla filling in the middle.
Unless you’re one of those people who eats the center of the Oreo first. Or one of those folks who dips their cookie in milk to make it soft. What’s your strategy for eating Oreos?
Today’s cookie recipe isn’t just inspired by milk’s favorite cookie. It has crushed Oreos baked right inside! These cookies made with Oreos are based off of the popular Oreo cookies from Crumbl bakeries.
They taste like Oreos combined with soft-baked chocolate cookies! The rich dark chocolate cookie dough is made with crushed oreo pieces and black cocoa. After baking, we piped on a homemade vanilla frosting that tastes just like the familiar Oreo stuffing!
Copycat Crumbl Oreo Cookies look and taste professionally made, but they’re easier to make than you might think. Make sure to serve these chocolatey cookies with a big glass of milk!
What do I need for these Oreo Sugar Cookies?
You’ll need these ingredients to make this copycat crumbl cookies recipe.
- Salted butter – Unsalted butter works, too. Just add a pinch of salt to the dry ingredients!
- Vegetable oil
- Sugar
- Eggs
- Vanilla extract
- All purpose flour
- Black cocoa powder – It’s even darker in color than dark cocoa powder and turns these cookies the same color as real Oreos. Find it on Amazon if your grocery store doesn’t carry it.
- Crushed Oreos – We used the original, single-stuffing Oreos.
- Baking powder
- Cream of tartar
For the Oreo buttercream frosting, you will also need:
- Butter
- Powdered sugar
- Heavy cream – Or milk.
- Vanilla extract
- Crushed Oreos
How do I crush Oreos?
I use my food processor to crush whole Oreos into fine crumbs. You want the cookie pieces small but with some texture; try not to pulverize them into a powder.
How do I make Crumbl Oreo cookies?
First, you’ll make the Oreo cookie dough. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream together the butter, oil and sugar. Mix in eggs and vanilla, followed by the dry ingredients, including the fine Oreo crumbs.
I like to work in batches when I incorporate the dry ingredients. The dough is thick and sticky, so you may need to scrape down the sides of the bowl a few times.
Scoop the dough into evenly sized balls. Place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. I used a 3 tablespoon cookie scoop to get 10 large cookies.
Now use the bottom of a drinking glass to press the scoops of dough into disks. They should be about ½ inch thick — you don’t need to press hard.
Bake the Oreo cookies for about 10 minutes. The edges should be set, but the center of the cookies will look soft and firm up as the cookies cool. Be careful not to overbake or you’ll change the soft, chewy texture!
Let the cookies cool completely. In the meantime, whisk together the frosting ingredients.
When it’s time to frost the cookies, you have a couple of options. If you have a frosting piping bag handy, go ahead and use it with a piping tip to pipe a perfect layer of frosting onto your cooled chocolate crumbl Oreo cookies.
No frosting bag? No problem! A ziploc bag works just as well! Scoop the frosting into the bag. Snip off one corner. Instant frosting bag!
After piping a circle of frosting onto your cookies, use an offset spatula to smooth it out. Sprinkle the rest of the Oreo cookie bits over the frosting. Eat and enjoy!
Tips and Tricks for Chocolate Sugar Cookies
- Use room temperature ingredients for easiest mixing. I take the butter and eggs out of the fridge about 20 minutes before making the cookies.
- These are BIG cookies! Cut them into quarters after baking and frosting for smaller serving sizes.
- Store cookies in an airtight container. They stay good at room temperature for about 3 days. Or stash them in the refrigerator to keep them fresh for up to one week.
Wondering if you can freeze these Chocolate Oreo Cookies? The answer is yes! Both the dough and the baked cookies freeze beautifully and stay good in the freezer for up to 2 months. Go ahead and make them ahead of time to keep on hand for sudden Crumbl cookie cravings!
