2 1/4 cups all purpose flour spooned and leveled
1 1/2 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
4 oz package cream cheese softened to room temperature
3/4 cup unsalted butter softened to room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
1 large egg at room temperature
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 1/4 cups roughly chopped Oreos
Directions
Step 1
Whisk the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese on medium-high speed until completely smooth and creamy. Add the butter and beat until combined, scraping down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl as needed. Add sugar and brown sugar and beat on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and beat on high speed until combined, about one minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine.
Step 3
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low speed until combined. With the mixer running on low speed, beat in the white chocolate chips. Add the Oreos and beat on low speed or gently fold in with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon until combined. Cover and chill the dough for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator, and up to 4 days. If chilling for longer that a few hours, allow to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before rolling and baking because the dough will be quite hard.
Step 4
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
Step 5
Roll cookie dough, a heaping 1 1/2 tbsp of dough per cookie, and place 3 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 12-13 minutes or until lightly browned on the sides. The centers will look very soft.
Step 6
Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 7
Cookies stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to one week.
