Ingredients

  • 12 tablespoons unsalted butter softened (170 grams)
  • ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar reduce to ½ (120 grams)
  • ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar (try using ¾ (125 grams)
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups unbleached all purpose flour (try bread) 240-260 grams***
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon cream of tartar plus ½ teaspoon cornstarch
  • 10-12 broken Oreos
  • ½ cup semisweet or bittersweet chips optional

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Beat butter and sugars until smooth. Add vanilla and egg and mix until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, stir together flour, soda, salt, baking powder and cream of tartar. Add flour mixture to butter mixture and stir until incorporated. Stir in Oreos by hand.
  • Divide the dough into about 12 equal sections and shape into balls - try not to crush up the Oreos too much. Place dough balls 3 inches apart (6 per cookie sheet) on parchment lined or non-stick cookie sheet and flatten tops slightly. You don't want to flatten it too much, you just don't want it to look like a ball. Press pieces of dark chocolate into dough. Bake for about 15 minutes or until brown around the edges.
  • Let cool slightly on cookie sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to set: remove from baking sheet. Cool on wire rack. Makes about 12 to 16 big cookies

Notes

The recipe uses 240 grams of flour, so this would be 2 very lightly spooned and swept 2 cups.  For best results, you really need to weigh it.
