Description

Chewy, thick, and vibrantly blue cookies packed with chocolate chips, Oreos, and rainbow sprinkles. These playful treats are perfect for parties, bake sales, or any time you want a fun, nostalgic dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups (280g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 4 ounces (113g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon blue gel food coloring (more for deeper color)
  • 1 cup (120g) mini chocolate chips
  • 1 cup (80g) chopped Oreo cookies (about 8 cookies)
  • 1/2 cup (90g) white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup (80g) rainbow sprinkles (jimmies)
  • Extra sprinkles and Oreo pieces for topping (optional)
  • Pinch of almond extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat butter and cream cheese until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  4. Add granulated sugar and brown sugar; beat another 1-2 minutes until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Scrape down sides of the bowl. Add blue gel food coloring and mix until dough is bright blue.
  6. Add flour mixture to wet mixture in two additions. Mix just until combined; do not overmix.
  7. Gently fold in mini chocolate chips, chopped Oreos, white chocolate chips, and sprinkles with a rubber spatula.
  8. Scoop dough by heaping tablespoons or use a medium cookie scoop (about 2 tbsp each) onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Press extra sprinkles or Oreo chunks on top if desired.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are set but centers still look slightly soft.
  10. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  11. Serve warm or store leftovers in an airtight container.

Notes

For extra-thick cookies, chill the dough for 30-60 minutes before baking. Use gel food coloring for best color and texture. Mini chips and jimmies sprinkles work best. Cookies can be made gluten-free or dairy-free with appropriate substitutions. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days or freeze for longer storage.
