How to Make Valentine’s Day Oreo M&M’s Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup butter (slightly softened)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 & 1/3 cup flour
  • 1 tbsp corn starch
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup Valentine’s Day M&M’s
  • 7 Oreo cookies (roughly chopped, regular stuffed, NOT double stuffed)

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together the slightly softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using a spatula.
  3. Add in the vanilla extract and egg, mixing until everything is smooth and well incorporated.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Start with flour, followed by corn starch, baking soda, and salt. Stir until just combined.
  5. Fold in the Valentine’s Day M&M’s and chopped Oreo pieces.
  6. Using a large cookie scooper (1/4 cup or 4 tablespoons), scoop out the cookie dough to form 10 equal cookies.
  7. Place the cookie dough scoops on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 13 minutes. They may look a bit underdone or gooey in the middle, but that’s okay! They will continue to bake even after you take them out of the oven.
  8. To shape the cookies, use a larger cookie cutter to gently swirl around the cookies right after they come out of the oven to make them perfectly round.
  9. Let them cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack.

How to Serve Valentine’s Day Oreo M&M’s Cookies

These cookies are great served warm or at room temperature. They pair wonderfully with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee. You can also package them in a decorative box or tin for a thoughtful homemade gift on Valentine’s Day. Decorate with some fun ribbon or a sweet note to make it even more special.

How to Store Valentine’s Day Oreo M&M’s Cookies

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh for about a week. If you want to keep them longer, you can freeze them. Just make sure they are wrapped well, and they will last in the freezer for up to three months.

Tips to Make Valentine’s Day Oreo M&M’s Cookies

  • Make sure your butter is slightly softened, but not melted, to get the best texture for your cookies.
  • If you want thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
  • You can substitute regular M&M’s for different holiday-themed M&M’s to suit other occasions!

Variation

Feel free to mix things up! You could add in some chopped nuts or use different flavored Oreos to create a twist on this classic recipe. You can also try using mini M&M’s for a slightly different look and taste.

FAQs

1. Can I use double stuffed Oreos?

  • It’s best to stick with regular stuffed Oreos for this recipe. Double stuffed may make the cookies too soggy.

2. What if I don’t have corn starch?

  • You can skip the corn starch if you don’t have it, but it helps keep the cookies soft and chewy. They will still turn out well without it!

3. Can I make the dough ahead of time?

  • Yes! You can prepare the cookie dough in advance and refrigerate it for up to 2 days before baking. Just allow it to come to room temperature before scooping and baking.
