Instructions
Making Chewy Red Velvet Oreo Cookies with Gooey Centers is simple and fun. Follow these steps to create your delicious cookies:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In another bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add Eggs and Flavoring: Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing in the vanilla extract and red food coloring until fully incorporated.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Fold in Oreos: Gently fold in the crushed Oreo cookies, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Prepare Filling: In a separate bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Set aside.
8. Form Cookies: Take a spoonful of the cookie dough and flatten it in your palm. Place a small dollop of the cream cheese filling in the center and wrap the dough around it. Roll into a ball and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
9. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers look slightly underbaked.
10. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
