Let’s Make it Together

Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). You want it nice and toasty when those cookies hit the baking sheet.

Melt That Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt your butter until it’s just liquid but not bubbling. Let it cool slightly before moving on.

Mix Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined. This ensures even distribution of all those tasty ingredients.

Create the Cookie Batter: In your mixing bowl with melted butter, add granulated sugar and brown sugar. Mix until creamy before adding eggs and blue food coloring—go bold!

Add Dry Ingredients Gradually: Slowly incorporate your dry mixture into the wet batter using a spatula. Fold gently until no flour pockets remain.

Toss in Chocolate Chips: Finally, mix in those chocolate chips and crumbled cookies until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Scoop and Bake: Use a cookie scoop to drop generous mounds of dough onto lined baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are golden yet centers are still soft.

Let them cool on the baking sheet for about five minutes before transferring them to wire racks—the anticipation is half the fun!

And there you have it! Your very own batch of Cookie Monster cookies ready to delight anyone lucky enough to snag one (or two… or three). Enjoy every gooey bite!
