Dark Chocolate Cookies & Cream Cookies
These Dark Chocolate Cookies & Cream Cookies are oh so chocolatey, with smooth white chocolate chips inside, and Cookies’n’Creme candy bar chunks on the outside.
These cookies! I love, LoVe, LOVE them! I love dark chocolate and cookies & cream things though, but I’m sure some of you have similar tastes as I do. These Dark Chocolate Cookies & Cream Cookies are made with the base of my Dark Chocolate Caramel Cashew Cookies, which are also fantastic; the only difference is I put white chocolate chips on the inside and chopped up Cookies’n’Creme candy bars on the outside, instead of using caramel bits and cashews.
I actually made these for a blogger event I went to and I will be honest, I wasn’t sure they would work, solely because some chocolate, especially white chocolate, doesn’t do so well when heated in the oven. I was worried I would have a big melty mess, or that the white chocolate would brown. Well, neither of those things happened and I was so excited!

My husband told me he could eat the whole batch himself, which is 48 cookies; and with his freakishly fantastic metabolism he totally could and not even gain an ounce, but he knew I was taking these with me to a party with the girls, so he only got to taste a couple. I’m pretty sure the girls liked them too. 😉
I will most definitely be frequenting this cookie recipe! The only problem I have when I make dark chocolate cookies in general, is that my Bosch is super fast at speed 1 and the dark cocoa powder always gets EVERYWHERE no matter how slow I add it to the bowl. Haha. It’s quite “fun” to wipe up chocolate powder all over the place, but honestly that won’t stop me from making these cookies. I love them and I hope you will too!

Just made these ! Lush . Did some without the White chocolate , some with carburys chocolate and some plain … Taking these to meet the parents
Glad you liked them! Hope the parents did too!
Sounds delicious. If you gently drape a dish towel around the top of your mixer all of that blowing cocoa will be easily contained.
Great idea! Thanks!
Our church is having a Cookie Walk will try these..
Sounds like a great excuse to try them! I hope you like these as much as we do!
Just tried these and they’re great! Good for dunking in milk 🙂
Awesome! I agree, great milk and cookies recipe!
I just made these and they are A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. I just used regular Hershey Cocoa because it was all I could find and they came out perfect. Plus, the candy pieces on top make them look so pretty! My Dad loves them. Definitely worth making! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
I’m so glad you liked them! They were quite addicting when I made them. 😉 Thanks for taking the time to come back and share your experience with the recipe Brianna!
Yep, definitely adding these to the list of treats to make! Yum!!
Haha! Awesome!
I want to make these! I’m a huge fan of dark chocolate and cookies! 🙂
Sounds like you will like these then! Thanks for stopping by!
I’m not a huge dark chocolate fan, but with the white chocolate cookies n cream pieces I think I’d still love these!
Honestly, I can’t tell the difference in flavor between regular cocoa and dark chocolate cocoa. Now there is a big difference in candy bar dark chocolates, and I am picky about those. 🙂
These look amazing! You had me at dark chocolate! Can’t wait to try them–pinned!
Thanks Lauren! I am a new lover of dark chocolate and it goes really well in these cookies!
I made chocolate cookies and cream cookies a long time ago on my blog but they didn’t turn out quite like I wanted them to. I’ve been meaning to retry and maybe I should just make these! Look great.
Really?! Bummer! Well, you will have to try these! They were fabulous!
