Kids are back to school and I’m back in the kitchen whipping up some great recipes. Yep, our Crumbl obsession continues and today we are sharing a REALLY GOOD (if not better than the original!) copycat recipe of the Crumbl Oreo Cookies.
These deliciously soft, Oreo-based cookies are topped with a creamy, cream cheese frosting and are super easy to make. What’s crazy is that I made these cookies this weekend without knowing that the Oreo Cookie would be one of the featured cookies of the week at Crumbl this week. Yep, you can grab the originals at a Crumbl store, but if you don’t have one nearby, try making your own with this recipe. You won’t be sorry.
If you want to try another flavor, may I suggest the Circus Animal Cookies, Salted Caramel Cheesecake Cookies, S’mores Brownie Cookies or the Chilled Sugar Cookies?
WHY ARE CRUMBL COOKIES SO BIG?
Crumbl makes their cookies so large that they are easy to share. If you look at the serving size of each Crumbl cookie in the store, it says “two servings”. Plus, I think the size adds to the novelty of the cookies because they are just so giant and delicious.
This recipes makes cookies are slightly smaller than what you might find at Crumbl BUT you can always make bigger ones. This recipe makes 16 cookies but if you divide the dough into 14 cookies, they might be as big as the Crumbl version.
WHAT ARE CRUMBL COOKIES?
Crumbl is a rather new cookie bakery that was started by two cousins in Logan, Utah in 2017. Cousins, Sawyer Hemsley and Jason McGowan set out to create the world’s best chocolate chip cookie. After some trial and error, testing ingredients and baking methods, Sawyer, Jason and their family opened up the first Crumbl store in Utah when Sawyer was still attending Utah State University.
Crumbl’s delicious cookies wouldn’t be complete without their iconic pink packaging! Crumbl’s boxes were designed to perfectly fit each Crumbl cookie side-by-side, whether in a 4-pack, 6-pack, or 12-pack box. The “4-pack” pink box — the brand’s most popular and notable — was developed in 2018, shortly after Crumbl sold its very first cookie.
They opened with just milk chocolate chip cookies and milk but quickly expanded to the rotating weekly cookie flavors that we know today. Crumbl’s award-winning milk chocolate chip cookie has always been on the menu with their chilled pink sugar cookie becoming a semi-permanent menu item soon after.
Since opening its doors in 2017, Crumbl has expanded to over 200 bakeries in 32 states nationwide, making it the fastest-growing cookie company in the nation.
WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE CRUMBL OREO COOKIES
COOKIE RECIPE NOTES
Oreo Cookies – You want the regular Oreo cookies and not the double stuffed or mega etc.
Butter – you want the butter softened for this recipe.
HOW TO MAKE CRUMBL OREO COOKIES
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Use parchment paper or a silpat mat to line a baking sheet.
2. Using a food processor, crush the 24 Oreo Cookies to a fine crumb.
3. Add the Oreo crumbs to a mixing bowl. Whisk in the sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, salt and flour.
4. Add the butter, egg and vanilla and mix in a stand mixer (or using a hand mixer) until completely combined.
5. Scoop out cookie dough balls that are about 2 TBSP each and space them out on the baking sheet. Keep the cookie dough balls about 2-3 inches apart and put 9 cookies to a pan.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 9 minutes.
7. Remove from oven and cool completely.
8. Make the Cream Cheese Frosting. Beat the cream cheese and butter together. Add in the vanilla and mix well.
9. Slowly add in the powdered sugar and mix until completely combined. Then turn the mixer on high and mix to make the frosting fluffy (about 2 minutes).
10. Put the frosting in a gallon size Ziploc bag and cut off one corner of the bag. Use the frosting bag to pipe frosting in a spiral on top of the cooled cookies.
11. Crush the additional 3 Oreo cookies and sprinkle the crumbs on top of each frosted cookie.
12. Enjoy. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

Is the flour all purpose or cake? Only asking because Nothet copycat recipe for crumbl said all purpose would be too heavy, so I just want to make sure! That was for a sugar cookie recipe though.

These are delicious! My whole family loved then. I've never had this flavor at crumbl. But these are super soft and melt in your mouth. I also like that these are a bit smaller, as they're very rich. Will for sure make again!
