The Cookie in a Cookie Cookie

A good motto for life: Eat dessert first, life in uncertain. I came across this cookie mix after falling short in chocolate chips in a hand to mouth craving involving the old fashioned chocolate chip cookie. The trick to this cookie is to have some big chunk of oreo in your batter, so don't over mix it. Also the baking soda with the hot water dissolved does something magic to the cookie texture. What happened next was unimaginably good, quite possibly the best cookie ever.
