Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter, softened to room temperature
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 cup Light Brown Sugar
- 2 large Eggs, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 3 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- Blue Gel Food Coloring
- 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup Milk Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup White Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup Chopped Chocolate Bar/Chunks
- 1 cup Crushed Chocolate Sandwich Cookies (like Oreos)
Instructions
- Prep Your Workspace: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a couple of baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Whisk Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together your all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add Wet Ingredients & Blue Magic: Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and add blue gel food coloring until you achieve the desired color.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Fold in the Chocolate & Cookies: Fold in all of your chocolate chips, chopped chocolate bar, and crushed chocolate sandwich cookies until evenly distributed.
- Scoop and Chill (Optional but Recommended!): Using a large cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. Chill the dough balls for at least 30 minutes.
- Bake to Perfection: Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and set, but the centers still look slightly soft.
- Cool and Enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Keywords: For best results, use gel food coloring for a vibrant blue hue. Don't overmix the dough, and consider chilling it for at least 30 minutes to prevent spreading.
