These Blue Cookie Monster Cookies are so fun!
I have always loved the Cookie Monster! In fact he might be my all time favorite Muppet. Maybe that is why I grew up to be a food blogger famous for my incredibly delicious bakery style cookies, that, much like every cookie that Cookie Monster sees, are just too good to resist!
Why are they called Cookie Monster cookies?
These are called Cookie Monster cookies because they are GIANT, full of chips ahoy cookies and colored blue like Cookie Monster.
Why you’ll love this Cookie Monster Cookie Recipe
These monster sized cookies are soft and chewy and stuffed with crushed Chips Ahoy, giving them that classic flavor, but also buttery and everything that you want in cookie! As if the cookie alone isn’t enough, these bad boys are topped with Cookie Monster blue buttercream. I promise that, if possible, these cookies taste even better than they look!

Cookie Monster Cookie ingredients
For The Cookies
- Salted Butter-Make sure you bring the butter to room temperature so that it will cream well with the sugar.
- Granulated Sugar-Just plain ol’ white sugar will do the trick.
- Brown Sugar- This combination of sugars will give the cookies the flavor and chew that you expect in a chocolate chip cookie.
- Eggs
- Vanilla Extract
- Flour– Just all purpose flour for these cookies.
- Crushed Chips Ahoy-You’ll want about 40 cookies crushed. I usually just toss them into my blender or food processor and pulverize them.
- Salt
- Baking Soda
- Baking Powder
- Mini Chocolate Chips
For The Buttercream
- Butter– again, I always use salted butter. If you only have unsalted, you’ll want to add a pinch of salt to your frosting!
- Powdered Sugar
- Vanilla– use your favorite brand, I usually buy Watkins vanilla from Walmart.
- Whipping Cream– This will thin out the filling to a good, easy to work with consistency and will help the filling be extra smooth and creamy. You can substitute regular milk, if needed. Just be aware that you won’t need as much because it is a lot thinner.
- Blue Food Coloring- This ingredient is optional, but obviously if you want the cookie monster blue it is necessary.
- Mini Chips Ahoy for Garnish
Blue Chocolate Chip Cookies variations
Can I make these cookies smaller?
Definitely! I actually think tiny bite sized Cookie Monster cookies would be ADORABLE! You’ll just want to bake them for a shorter time. The exact cook time will depend on the size of your dough. I’d bake just a few the first time and keep a timer on and an eye on the cookies. Pull them out when they spread and start to crackle.
How to Make Cookie Monster Cookies
- Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees.
- With yourstandorhand mixer,cream together your butter and sugar. Keep mixing for 2-3 minutes until the butter and sugar are smooth and creamy, then add the eggs and vanilla and mix again. You will want to keep mixing until it is light in color and creamy.
- Now add your dry ingredients to the wet ones. We will only use 2 cups of the crushed cookie crumbs in the cookie dough, the rest will be used to coat the cookie before baking and to garnish on top of the frosting. Be careful not to over mix, this will dry out your cookies and make the texture cakey.
- Fold the chocolate chips in gently and divide into 1/2 cup portions. Roll your cookies into a ball. Remove 1/3 of a cup of cookie crumbs and set aside for garnishing, then roll each cookie dough in the remaining cookie crumbs, pressing the crumbs onto the sides of the cookie dough.

5. Arrange 6 cookies per cookie sheet and flatten the dough slightly before baking.
6. Bake for 13-15 minutes. The cookies will spread and start to crackle when it is time to take them out of the oven. Remove them from the oven but keep them on the baking sheet for another 20 minutes. This will allow them to continue to cook as they cool.
7. While the cookies are cooling make the buttercream by creaming the butter until it becomes light. Slowly add the powdered sugar and heavy cream a half tablespoon at a time and continue to mix until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and mix to combine. Add more heavy cream if needed to achieve the right consistency.
8. Mix in the blue food coloring until the buttercream has reached the desired color.
9. When your cookies are completely cooled generously frost your cookies and top with a mini Chips Ahoy. Sprinkle with cookie crumbs and enjoy!

Storing Blue Chocolate Chip Cookies
These can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you’d like to store them longer than that, I’d suggest freezing them. You can freeze with the frosting on. They will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Blue Cookie Monster Cookies FAQs
What are the cookies that Cookie Monster eats?
Cookie Monster is seen depicted eating a variety of cookies such as chocolate chip, oatmeal and even sugar cookies on the TV show Sesame Street.
How do you make perfectly round cookies?
Immediately after taking the cookies out of the oven, you can use the back of a spoon to push the edges of the cookie in or you can use a large round cookie cutter and gently swirl the cookie inside of the cookie cutter creating a perfect circle.
What kind of food coloring should I use?
I always use gel food coloring because a little goes a long way.
