Instructions
- Make the dough: Beat softened butter with white and brown sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, mix until smooth. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in separate bowl. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet, stir until just combined. Fold in crushed Oreo crumbs gently.
- Shape and bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop 3 tablespoon dough balls, space apart, lightly flatten tops. Bake 12-14 minutes until edges set and centers soft. Cool completely on wire rack before frosting.

- Decorate: Spread or pipe frosting on cooled cookies. Sprinkle extra Oreo crumbs and pieces on top. Serve with cold milk for full effect.
Notes
Remove Oreo cream before crushing for dough to avoid greasy cookies., Avoid overmixing dough to keep cookies soft and fluffy., Use larger scoops for bakery-sized cookies with chewy centers., Remove cookies from oven slightly early as they firm while cooling., Cool cookies fully before frosting to prevent melting., Mix Oreo crumbs into frosting for enhanced flavor., Optional additions include white chocolate chips, almond extract, mini Oreos, melted chocolate drizzle, cake flour substitution, and chocolate jimmies for texture.
