Crumbl Oreo Cookies Anytime You’re Craving Them!
I don’t go to Crumbl® often. I only make the trip when the Oreo® cookie pops up on the menu. The first time I tried it, I split the giant cookie with my kids in the car and we were all blown away. Rich chocolate cookie, creamy frosting, and a shower of Oreo crumbs. Instant favorite.
Since it isn’t there every week, I set out to make my own at home. I kept the big 4-ounce size, folded crushed Oreos into a soft chocolate dough, and whipped a smooth frosting to swirl on top. More crumbs for the finish. Now I can have that Oreo week taste any time, fresh from the oven.
Crumbl Oreo Cookies Ingredients
| Ingredient | Swaps or tips |
|---|---|
| Dutch-process cocoa | Use true Dutch cocoa. Hershey’s Special Dark or Ghirardelli are straightforward to find. |
| Cake flour | Use store-bought cake flour for best texture. DIY cake flour works in a pinch but will not be the same. |
| Unsalted butter | Salted butter works. Reduce added salt slightly if using salted. |
| Brown sugar & white sugar | Keep both for the right texture and spread. |
| Eggs | Use room-temp eggs for easier mixing. |
| Baking soda & baking powder | Check freshness for proper lift. |
| Oreo® cookies | Pulse to fine crumbs. Fold some into the dough and sprinkle more on top. |
| Cream cheese frosting | Add a pinch of salt and vanilla for balance. |
Tools For Crumbl Oreo Cookies
- Silpat liner: These cookies bake best on a silicone liner, ensuring they bake evenly without getting too crispy on the bottom.
- Food scale: Even-sized dough balls bake evenly. A food scale helps with this, making your cookies look more uniform.
- Piping tip: Use a 1M open star piping tip for the cream cheese frosting. If you’d rather not pipe it, spread it with a knife, this uses less frosting.
- Blender or food processor: Pulse whole Oreos (filling included) into fine crumbs. If you don’t have one, crush the cookies in a sealed plastic bag.
Crumbl Oreo Cookies Tips
- Use finely crushed Oreos—larger chunks won’t stick to the dough.
- Measure flour correctly by spooning it into the cup and leveling it with a knife.
- Use fresh ingredients for soft, bakery-style cookies.
- Leave space on the sheet—bake only 2-3 cookies per sheet.
- Slightly under-bake to keep cookies soft and chewy. Look for firm edges and a set center; residual heat will finish baking them.
Quick Tip
To frost these Crumbl Oreo Cookies, fill a plastic bag with frosting; squeeze it down to one corner, and cut off the very tip. Then, holding the cookie in one hand and the frosting bag in the other, swirl the frosting around the cookie. Top with some more crushed Oreos and enjoy!
Storage
Crumbl Oreo Cookie Storage
Because of the frosting, these cookies don’t store or freeze well. If you’re going to have extra cookies that won’t be enjoyed the same day, It is worth storing the frosting and cookies separately and combining the two right before serving. The frosting needs to be refrigerated in an airtight container, while the cookies do best when stored in an airtight container at room temperature. Allow the frosting to soften/come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before frosting the cookies; it’s very stiff right out of the fridge.
Freezing: Instead of freezing already-baked cookies, freeze the dough! Drop the cookie dough balls on a large sheet pan and freeze until solid. Once solid, move the frozen cookie dough balls to an airtight container or bag and freeze for up to three months. You can bake these Oreo cookies straight from the freezer. There is no need to thaw, but you may need to add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
