Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup vegan butter (or regular unsalted butter if not vegan)
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon non-dairy milk (almond, oat, or soy)
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 10 Oreo cookies, crushed
- 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chip cookies
- Blue gel food coloring (vegan if needed)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, beat the vegan butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Mix in the vanilla extract and non-dairy milk until smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix into wet ingredients to form a thick dough.
- Add Food Coloring: Stir in blue gel food coloring until evenly distributed for that iconic Cookie Monster shade.
- Fold in Mix-Ins: Gently fold in crushed Oreos, chocolate chips, and mini cookies.
- Scoop and Bake: Scoop dough balls onto prepared sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Bake 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are just set.
- Cool and Enjoy: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Use gel food coloring for vibrant blue cookies without altering the dough texture.
- Chill dough for 20 minutes if it’s too soft to prevent spreading.
- Press extra mix-ins on top before baking for a bakery-style look.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Variation: Use different food coloring or themed toppings for holidays or parties.
