Cookie Monster Cookies: The Sweetest Blue Madness!

Okay, so have you ever found yourself in a cookie crisis? Like, you just *need* cookies, but not just any cookies—I’m talking about those gooey, loaded-with-goodness type? Well, buckle up, because I’ve got the recipe for Cookie Monster Cookies, and trust me, they’re as wild as they sound!

The finished dish — looks amazing, right?

Okay, Let’s Talk Ingredients

Alright, here’s the deal. You’re gonna need some butter—1 cup, room temp (not too melty, okay?). Then grab a cup of light brown sugar, packed tight like your favorite jeans after the holidays, and 3/4 cup of granulated sugar (sweet tooth much?). You’ll need 2 large eggs, 2 teaspoons of vanilla (because duh, vanilla), and don’t forget the blue food coloring—let’s get our cookie monster on!

Oh, and here’s a pro tip: 1 teaspoon of salt and 2 teaspoons of baking powder are gonna do wonders. For the flour, grab 3 cups. The fun part? Mix-ins galore! 3/4 cup each of semisweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, chopped Oreos (think about 10 of those bad boys), and those crispy chocolate chip cookies (like Famous Amos or mini Chips Ahoy). Throw in 3/4 cup of milk chocolate discs, and then some extra chocolate chips and Oreos for the top because, like, why not?

So Here’s Why I Make This Constantly

Okay, so here’s the backstory. I first made these cookies for a friend’s birthday party (totally forgot it was happening until the day before—classic me). I was scrolling TikTok, and BAM! These Cookie Monster Cookies popped up. I thought, “This is it; this is the moment I save my baking reputation!”

So I whipped these up, and let me tell you, the kitchen looked like a blue explosion. But when I pulled them out of the oven? OMG. They were a hit! Everyone was diving in, and I’m pretty sure I didn’t even get to eat one until the last batch was gone. I’ve been making them ever since—now it’s like a tradition or something.

Just as gorgeous from this angle too!

The One Trick That Changes Everything

Alright, listen up! So here’s the golden nugget of wisdom: if your cookie dough feels too soft, pop it in the fridge for 30 minutes before baking. It’ll help those cookies hold their shape and not turn into pancake monsters on the baking sheet. Ugh, learned that the hard way after a cookie disaster that left me with some sad, flat cookies.

Don’t Mess This Up (My Top Tips)

1. Room temp butter is key! Too soft, and you’ll end up with a puddle. Too cold, and the sugars won’t cream properly.
2. *Don’t overmix!* Just mix until you don’t see any flour. If you do, you’ll end up with tough cookies. No one wants that.
3. Make sure to leave space between your cookie dough balls on the baking sheet. These babies spread out!
4. Remember—check at 10 minutes but take ’em out when the edges are golden. The centers will finish cooking on the rack.

How to Keep Them From Disappearing (Or, How to Store Them)

Okay, so if you wanna try to save some for later (good luck with that), just pop ’em in an airtight container. They’ll stay fresh for about a week, but let’s be real, they probably won’t last that long. You can also freeze the dough for a rainy day—just scoop them out, freeze, and then bake straight from the freezer when the craving hits!

If You Liked This, You’ll Probably Like These Too
