Instructions
- Prepare the filling by beating cream cheese until smooth, then mix in icing sugar and vanilla extract.
- Scoop small portions onto a lined tray and freeze for 30–45 minutes until firm.
- In a bowl, beat cold butter with granulated and brown sugar for about 2 minutes.
- Add egg and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together flours, cornstarch, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients to form dough.
- Fold in chopped sandwich cookies and chocolate chips.
- Scoop dough, flatten slightly, and place frozen filling in center.
- Cover with more dough and seal edges completely.
- Place on a lined tray and add extra toppings.
- Chill assembled cookies for 20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 180°C.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until edges are set and centers soft.
- Cool on tray before transferring to a rack.
Notes
- Freezing the filling prevents it from melting too quickly.
- Chill dough if it becomes too soft.
- Use regular cocoa powder if black cocoa is unavailable.
- Seal edges well to prevent filling leakage.
- Store in refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Reheat briefly for a soft, gooey center.
