    If you like Oreos and sugar cookies - this recipe is for you! My husband does not have a sweet tooth at all (ironic he married a baker), but if there is ever a Cookies and Cream flavor option, he's all in. This cookies and cream sugar cookie recipe combines the best of both worlds with a soft sugar cookie and the crunch of an Oreo within. If you are more of a plain sugar cookie kind of person, check out this recipe. But if you are a cookies and cream lover, let's continue!

    Why you will Love these Cookies and Cream Sugar Cookies

    • They have Oreos in them (I could probably end the list right here, am I right?)
    • These cookies are really thick and soft.
    • This is a no spread cookie recipe - meaning it is perfect for decorating with Royal Icing!
    • If you don't want to frost these sugar cookies you can eat them plain and they are still delish!
    • Since this recipe is no spread, you can use cookie cutters to create your favorite shapes.

    Making your Sugar Cookie Dough

    Mix Your Dry Ingredients and Crush Oreos

    In a medium bowl, combine your dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk very well to fully incorporate.

    If you have a food processor, you can use it to crush your Oreos. However, if you are lazy when it comes to dishes (like I am), you can do the plastic bag method. I place all of the Oreos in a gallon-sized ziplock bag, and crush them with my rolling pin. The other benefit to this method is you'll get more variance of large and small Oreo pieces. I personally love when there is a big chunk of Oreo in my cookie!

    Mix Your Butter and Sugars

    Combine your room temperature butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl. If you have a stand mixer use the paddle attachment. However, if you only have a hand mixer that will do the trick as well. Once these ingredients are in the bowl, beat on high until fully incorporated - approximately 2 minutes (you can go a bit less time if you are using a stand mixer).

    Butter and Sugars Blended together

    Add your egg and vanilla extract and beat on low until just incorporated.

    Add your Dry Ingredients

    Slowly add your flour mixture to your wet ingredients a little bit at a time (about ½ cup each addition). Beat on low speed until just combined. At this point, the dough will be somewhat dry and not cohesive. Beat in the heavy cream on high until just incorporated (no more than 10-15 seconds on a stand mixer or 30 seconds with a hand mixer) to bring the mixture together.

    Add your Oreos and stir them in by hand. If you are using a Kitchenaid mixer, you can use the stir setting!

    Storing Sugar Cookie Dough

    If you plan to bake your cookies immediately, continue to the next step. If you plan to bake them at a later time, form a flat disc with your dough and cover in plastic wrap (to be safe I always put the wrapped dough in an airtight container or freezer ziplock bag). You can store the dough in the fridge for about 5-7 days or in the freezer for up to a few months. However, I typically do not like to freeze the dough for more than a few weeks, just a personal preference!

    Rolling Out and Baking your Cookie Dough

    Cut two pieces of wax paper, place one on a flat surface. Take half of your cookie dough and form it into a long horizontal log shape. If you are using dough sticks, place the ½" thickness sticks on either side of the dough, and cover with the other piece of wax paper. Using your rolling pin, roll the dough flat. Place on a baking sheet (or on another flat surface) and place in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. Repeat this process with the other half of the cookie dough.

    Rolling out Sugar Cookie Dough

    In the meantime, line your baking sheet with either parchment paper or a silicone mat.

    Once your dough is chilled to the point where it is stiff (but not frozen), it's time to cut out your shapes! Place cutouts on the lined baking sheet Place the first batch in the oven at 350 degrees with a bake time of 12-14 minutes (or until the bottom edges of the cookies are slightly golden brown).

    Cookie Dough Cut Outs

    As soon as you take the cookies out of the oven, flatten them with a fondant smoother to make sure any oreo pieces that may be sticking up, are flat. This step is only important if you plan to decorate your cookies with royal icing.

    Flattening Out Cookies After Baking

    Let the cookies rest on the cookie sheet for at least 5 minutes, transfer to a wire rack, and let sit until completely cool.

    Decorating Your Cookies and Cream Sugar Cookies

    This is a perfect cookie recipe to go with so many different kinds of frosting! My favorite frosting for decorating is Royal Icing. you can find my royal icing recipe here or my complete royal icing guide here!

    You could also frost these with buttercream frosting and top with a few crushed Oreos. I don't have a buttercream recipe posted yet, but there are so many great options out there. Though I haven't tried it, I suspect a cream cheese frosting would be really darn delicious with these!

    If frosting is not your cup of tea, you can absolutely leave these bad boys plain too!
