Congratulations to Lauryn Cohen a.k.a. Bella Baker, one of our favorite baking bloggers. If she hasn’t already had her first child by the time this post runs, she’s about to.

Perhaps that’s why she is so keen on this “pregnant” chocolate chip cookie, a homemade cookie stuffed with store-bought Oreos. She found the original recipe on Picky-Palate.com (here’s Jenny Flake’s Picky Palate Cookbook).
 
 
RECIPE: OREO STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

2. CREAM the butter and sugars until fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Fold in the flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in the chocolate chips.

3. SCOOP the dough using a small cookie scoop. Sandwich an Oreo cookie between two scoops of dough. Mold the dough around the Oreo until it is totally encased in cookie dough.

4. PLACE on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 11-15 minutes. Cool and serve.
