Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 cups (360g) all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter (2 sticks, room temperature)
  • 1 ¼ cups (267g) brown sugar
  • ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Royal blue, electric blue, and violet gel food coloring

Mix-ins

  • 2/3 cup (113g) white chocolate chips (divided)
  • 2/3 cup chopped Chips Ahoy cookies (mini cookies recommended)
  • 2/3 cup chopped Oreos

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 350º F (175º C). Line a cookie sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper to ensure cookies bake evenly without sticking.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the all purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside for later incorporation.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium speed for 2 minutes. The goal is to create a light, fluffy, and pale mixture as the base for your cookie dough.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract for 30 seconds, ensuring a smooth, well-combined mixture that will help bind your dough.
  5. Incorporate Dry Ingredients and Color: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients on low speed to avoid flour clouds. Before finishing, add generous amounts of royal blue, electric blue, and violet gel food coloring to the dough until a deep, vibrant blue is achieved. The dough will become thick and colorful.
  6. Add Cookie Chunks and Chocolate: Fold in ⅓ cup of the white chocolate chips, ⅓ cup chopped Chips Ahoy, and ⅓ cup chopped Oreos by hand, ensuring even distribution without over mixing.
  7. Shape and Coat: Using a cookie scoop, form 2-tablespoon-sized dough balls. Roll them smoothly between your hands. Press the remaining white chocolate chips and chopped cookie pieces onto the outside of each dough ball for extra texture and visual appeal. Place up to 8 cookies on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them adequately.
  8. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, aiming to remove them just before the edges start to brown for a soft, chewy texture.
  9. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 15 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack or plate to finish cooling and firm up.

Notes

  • Ensure butter and eggs are at room temperature for best creaming and mixing results.
  • The amount of gel food coloring is important to achieve the deep, true blue color—add gradually and mix thoroughly.
  • Baking one cookie sheet at a time helps maintain even heat distribution and consistent baking.
  • Do not overbake; pulling the cookies before edges brown keeps them soft and chewy.
  • Chopping cookies into similarly sized pieces ensures even distribution and texture in each bite.
