Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup blue chocolate candies (like M&M’s)

1/2 cup chocolate chips

1/2 cup crushed Oreos

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

      Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition.

        In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

          Fold in the blue chocolate candies, chocolate chips, and crushed Oreos until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

            Scoop tablespoons of cookie dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space between each cookie as they will spread while baking.
