Plus, I find the chocolate chip cookie can morph into so many different variations that I don’t think I’d ever get bored.

Why You’ll Fall in Love with Oreos Chocolate Chip Cookies
These cookies are BIG, soft, and packed full of Oreos and chocolate chips.
They’re made with pudding mix for a flavor reminiscent of cookies and cream ice cream. If you’ve never made pudding cookies before, let this be your glorious introduction. Pudding mix makes the cookies extra soft and puffy, with extra vanilla flavor.
They can be made and baked in about 30 minutes. This is a no-chill Oreo Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, perfect for when you need to satisfy a craving fast or whip up a last minute treat for a school function or party.
Ingredients Needed
- Baking staples like all purpose flour, baking soda, and salt
- Unsalted butter– I always use unsalted butter for baking, so I can control the salt. Softened butter should be soft enough for your finger to leave an imprint when pressed into the top, but not so soft that is melting or pooling along the edges.
- Brown and granulated sugar– A higher ratio of brown to granulated sugar makes for a richer, chewier cookie.
- Vanilla pudding mix– Make sure you buy instant pudding and not cook and serve. We’ll just be using the powder, not making the pudding.
- Eggs
- Vanilla extract
- Semi sweet chocolate chips
- Oreos– These are made with the original Oreos, but yes, you can use any Oreo flavor you like in this recipe! Check out our Mint Oreo Cookies recipe for one of our favorite variations.
How to Make Oreos Chocolate Chip Cookies
Step 1: Prep. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2: Whisk dry ingredients. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 3: Cream butter and sugars. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat together the butter and sugars on medium high speed until lighter in color and fluffy, at least 3-4 minutes, scraping the bowl halfway through.
Step 4: Add pudding and wet ingredients. Add the instant pudding mix (just the powder!), eggs, and vanilla extract and beat until well combined, another 2-3 minutes, scraping the bowl as needed.
Step 5: Stir in dry ingredients. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just moistened, then increase to medium speed and beat until dry ingredients are just combined.
Step 6: Stir in mix-ins. Add the chocolate chips and Oreos and beat on low speed until well distributed.
Step 7: Scoop. Scoop a generous 2 Tablespoons of dough (a rounded jumbo-size cookie scoop) onto the prepared pans, about 2 inches apart.
Step 8: Bake. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are set but center is still puffed and soft looking. Top with additional Oreo chunks and chocolate chips if desired. Allow to set up on the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
Storage and Freezing Instructions
The beauty of pudding cookies is that they stay soft for a LONG time. Store these in an airtight container, and they’ll still be soft and chewy a week later (if they last that long!).
To freeze unbaked Oreo cookie dough, prepare the dough and scoop onto a cookie sheet, close together but not touching. Flash freeze, then transfer to a freezer bag and freeze for up to 6 months.
Cookies can be baked directly from frozen, just add a few minutes to the baking time.
To freeze baked Oreo cookies, stack the cookies in a freezer safe container with parchment paper between each layer. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight at room temperature before serving.
See our Guide to Freezing Cookies for full instructions and tips for freezing all kinds of cookie recipes!
Tips for Success + Variations
- Whenever you’re baking, be sure to measure your flour by spooning it into the measuring cup then leveling it. If you scoop the flour with your measuring cup, it packs in and you end up with too much, potentially making the recipe too dry or thick.
- I don’t recommend making these with a standard size measuring scoop. A generous 2 Tablespoons makes the perfect thick and chewy cookie. This measuring scoop set from King Arthur Flour is heavy duty and works for the thickest cookie dough. I’ve had them for 5+ years and they’re still going strong.
- Use a silicone baking mat or parchment paper for the best results.
- You can double this recipe for a bigger batch!
- Feel free to experiment with different flavors of pudding and Oreos. You can also mix in some white chocolate chips if that’s your jam!
