Ingredients
Method
Step 1: Preheat & make the brownie filling
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (convection) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk or paddle attachment, beat the room-temperature butter and granulated sugar for 1–2 minutes, until pale and off-white. Mix in the vanilla extract.
- Add the all-purpose flour to a heat-safe bowl and microwave for 60 seconds to heat-treat it.
- Stir the heat-treated flour, cocoa powder, and crushed Oreos into the butter mixture until a thick brownie-style dough forms. If you prefer a softer filling, mix in 1–2 tablespoons of milk.
- Set brownie batter aside.
Step 2: Make the cookie dough
- In a clean bowl, beat the room-temperature butter and granulated sugar for 1–2 minutes, until light and off-white.
- Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, sprinkles, and white chocolate. Gently fold or mix on low speed just until a soft cookie dough forms.
Step 3: Fill & coat
- Scoop ⅓ cup of cookie dough, flatten it in your palm, and place 1–2 tablespoons of brownie batter in the center.
- Wrap the cookie dough around the filling and roll into a ball, sealing completely.
- In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and sprinkles. Roll each cookie dough ball in the mixture until fully coated.
Step 4: Arrange
- Place cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
Step 5: Bake
- Bake for 12–13 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers are just soft.
Step 6: Shape & cool
- Immediately after baking, use a round bowl, cup, or cookie cutter to gently swirl around each cookie for clean, circular edges.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before removing.
Step 7: Serve & store
- Enjoy warm for the ultimate gooey center, or store in a chilled environment for up to 8 days.
