I was a little nervous after reading some other reviews, but I love these cookies! I didn't have any trouble with my dough being too thin or greasy. The cookies turned out nicely and were pretty good! I didn't crunch up my Oreos much and I think the bigger chunks helped.

thanks adam these are great because they keep my 2 yr old distracted!

My son and I prepared this batter today and plan on letting it firm up for 24 hours before baking. I used half butter/half margerine and instead of the 2 1/4 c. flour, I did two cups of flour and 1/4 c. of baking cocoa. I also used Mother's Chocolate-Peanut Butter sandwich cookies. I ground them very coarsely in my blender using the ice crushing feature. We made two cookies for us to share between three of us and it's good but it spread a little. I bet it would be even better after firming up a bit. The baking cocoa was a smart addition. Next time, I'll add chocolate chips or peanut butter chips.

The recipe was good but not as good as I was expecting. I thought it was a little dry/dull. I added about a bag of white chocolate chips and the cookies turned out much better. I also made the oreo crumbs bigger to really make the taste stand out.

Good cookies, but better if you add chocolate chips of course.

These cookies were awesome! I just made a few small changes... I cut the butter to 3/4 cup and added a few handfuls of chocolate chips (you can never have too much chocolate right?). They were a big crowd pleaser at the picnic I took them to... should have made more so I could have brought some home!

[[UPDATE 05/08 - Ever since I baked these a few months ago I've had repeat requests for more. I think I might add more oreo bits next time]] These are very good! I did not need to change them at all. A friend of mine is an oreo-lover -- I made these for her and she couldn't stop raving. Very easy, very good.

These cookies are incredible. I couldn't keep my hands off of them. I brought these to work and they were gone in 5 minutes. I did decrease the butter to 3/4 cup after reading some reviews of "greasy" cookies, and had no problems. Awesome recipe.

These are okay.... Not really my cup of tea as they are way too sweet. I would much prefer to eat the Oreos rather than smash them into the dough. I made suggested changes (using self raising flour, no salt, no baking soda and less butter). Would definitely have been way too greasy with more butter.

YUM! These are ingenious! I have made them for friends and for a work event- they are a HUGE hit! I like to mix the cookie dough and throw the cookies in at the end and use the mixer to crush them a bit...I find that spreads out the cookies better and crushes them better. I have made them 3 times and am making them again this weekend- people keep asking me for those "dirt cookies"! I also add a cup of chocolate chips- it gives them an added PUNCH! Thanks for this YUMMY recipe! What a great idea!

very good! I used less oreos than suggested, they were a favorite at my house. they do look like dirt.

These were ok. But there is something about them that I'm not sure that I like. I'm thinking the butter. The taste almost greasy. They are good enough to eat and finish, but I don't think I'll make them again. And it's nothing personal Adam. They aren't horrible, it's just not the cookie for me :)

Yum Yum Yum!!!! These cookies are fantastic!!!! My husband kept eating these from the cooling racks. I used a little extra oreos (about 2 cups total)I LOVE oreos and this recipe just makes them even better. I just piled them into a 4 cup measuring cup and used a fork to break them into big chunks. For the people who's cookies are coming out to salty a rule of thumb for baking is to bake with UNSALTED butter. If you use salted butter just omit the added salt in the recipe. I always cook with salted butter and omit the salt because I only carry sea salt in the house which does not work well for baked goods. Also is your cookies turn out to flat make sure your A. not melting your butter whe you add it to the mix or B. try using half butter/half margarine mixture. This always makes my cookies perfect. I always use half and half which I started doing when my cookies kept getting flat. I have never had a problem since.

Great cookies with a nice twist. I did use 1 full cup of the brown sugar and I cut my cookies into chunks and added them in that way(more like 2 cups). I also made another batch adding in some mini choco chips and they were great as well. Def a keeper recipe that I will experiment with other cookies(like nutterbutter's YUM!) Thanks for the share.

These cookies were really good. I try new cookie recipes every month to send to my son who is in Afganistan. These cookies shipped well and stayed fresh. He really enjoyed them. Thanks for the great recipe.

I give this recipe 5 stars because the dough is divine; the cookies are good, but not extraordinary. I used half the salt and double the vanilla (because I love vanilla), and I also used small crumbs and large chunks of Oreos. My cookies did not have a "crackled" appearance like nascargirl's photo. Thanks for the recipe, Adam!
