Mint Oreo Pudding Cookies are soft, chewy and full of mint flavor, Oreo pudding mix and crumbled Oreo cookies! The mint and chocolate flavor combination is a winner in these amazing cookies!
These cookies are absolutely delicious and I love how the pudding adds extra Oreo flavor while making the cookies extremely soft. Most of my favorite cookies have pudding in the dough, but here are some other tips to make sure your cookies end up being soft, chewy and perfect every time!
- Do not over mix the dough or use too much flour.
- Make sure that the butter is softened, but NOT melted. If you melt the butter, it will completely change the consistency of the cookies and they will be flat and crispy.
- Bake cookies the minimum amount of time, even though the center may look slightly underbaked. I have made these cookies so many times and ten minutes seems to be the perfect amount of time for this particular recipe. Let cookies stand on baking sheet for one to three minutes to continue to bake, then remove to cooling rack.
- Store soft cookies in an airtight container.
- Do not store soft chewy cookies with crisp type cookies.
- Use shiny aluminum cookie sheets, not dark colored ones. I have recently begun using silicone baking mats for all of my cookie baking and they are incredible! The cookies come off of the mats so easily and as an added bonus, your cookie sheets stay perfect too!

I have 2 packages of mint Oreo cookies that I need them use (preferably not by eating them all :P) before their best by date. Sorry if I missed this, but I don’t see anywhere on here: approximately how many cookies does this recipe make?
Nellie says
This recipe should make about 3 dozen cookies, depending on how big you scoop them. I’m LOVING the concept of making more cookies with the cookies that you are trying to avoid eating!!!
Sera says
Thanks! Haha :). My logic is that if I turn the Oreos into something fancy, I can bring them into work to share :P.
Hadley says
These were SO good! I loved the original cookies and creme cookies with regular oreos, so I had to try these! I also added white chocolate chips to the recipe, which made these even better! Definitely recommend this recipe with the white chocolate chips :).
Katrina says
It tastes just like grasshopper pie ice cream! Also the color is exactly the same out of the oven as before i put them in.
Annalee says
Very good! The 10 minutes is good but if you want a more gooey cookie I’d go around 8 minutes!
Jessica says
Thanks Annalee!

Delicious cookies, I added a bit more food coloring for a darker green but I did find a variance with my ovens cooking time. I liked trays with parchment and at 350 8 minutes the cookies all had caramel edges (maybe the dough got too warm before going in and the butter flattened out) so I took them out and baked the next batch for 10 minutes at 325 and that seemed like a more even bake. I do need to try this again as my cookies are thinner and flatter than those pictured but perhaps chilling the dough would help. Overall a family favorite ! So good
