# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • Hidden Oreo cream filling that oozes out when you take that first warm bite
  • The combination of red velvet cocoa and white chocolate creates the perfect sweet balance
02 -
  • Chilling the filling first prevents it from melting into the dough while you work
  • Sealing the dough completely around the filling is crucial or the cream will leak during baking
03 -
  • Roll the dough balls in extra crushed Oreos before baking for ultimate cookies and cream flavor
  • Use a cookie scoop to ensure uniform size and even baking times
