    I started my food vlogging journey in 2024, when I decided it was time to share my love of cooking with folks near and far. I grew up learning the ins and outs of the kitchen from my grandparents and my mama — they taught me that a good meal can bring people together like nothing else. Now, I’m proud to carry on their passion and share those same comforting flavors with y’all.

Monster Cookies with Oreo, Chips Ahoy, and chocolate chips start with green cookie dough and finish with candy eyes pressed into the tops. The chopped sandwich cookies, chopped chocolate chip cookies, and semi-sweet chocolate chips are all folded into the dough before baking.

Watch How to Make It

These cookies are shaped on the baking sheet, baked at 350°F, then cooled for 10 minutes before serving. The green food coloring can be adjusted to reach the shade you want, with one important detail to keep in mind as the dough comes together.

Ingredients You'll Need

Salted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar form the starting base for the dough. Eggs and vanilla are added next, followed by green food coloring for the cookie color.

The dry ingredients are all-purpose flour, baking soda, and baking powder. The add-ins include chopped Oreo cookies, chopped Chips Ahoy cookies, and semi-sweet chocolate chips, while candy eyes are added after baking.

How To Make It

Gather the ingredients before starting so the butter and sugars can be mixed first, followed by the eggs, vanilla, food coloring, dry ingredients, and chopped cookie add-ins. The dough is scooped onto either a greased baking sheet or one lined with parchment paper.

Place the softened salted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar in a mixing bowl. Mix them together until well combined.

Add the eggs and vanilla to the bowl, then mix in 4 to 5 squirts of green food coloring. Continue mixing until the dough reaches the green shade you want.

Make the dough a shade darker than your intended final color because the flour will lighten the color slightly. This is the recipe's built-in color guide, so set the shade before adding the dry ingredients.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

Scoop the dough onto a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Leave space between each cookie on the sheet.

Bake the cookies at 350°F for approximately 12 minutes. Be careful not to over-bake them.

As soon as the cookies come out of the oven, gently press candy eyes into the tops while the dough is still soft. Adding the eyes right after baking is the key timing detail here, since the instructions place them while the cookie tops have not yet firmed.
