The best chocolate junk-food cookie ever!

1 package (17.5 oz) Betty Crocker Double Chocolate Chunk Cookie Mix
15 (1/2 package) Cool Mint Creme Oreo Cookies
1 cup (4 oz) chopped walnuts
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup (2 oz) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup water

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Empty the cookie mix into a large bowl. Break 15 Oreo cookies over the cookie mix. (Break each cookie into 5 or 6 pieces. Don't break the cookies into too many pieces.) Add the chopped nuts.

In a pint liquid measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together the egg, water, and vanilla. Whisk in the melted butter. Pour over the dry ingredients, and gently stir until a soft dough forms, and the cookie mix is completely incorporated into the dough.

Drop about an inch apart by tablespoonfuls on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Bake about 9 minutes or just until set. The centers will still be soft.

Remove from the oven, and cool for 1 minute on the baking sheet. Remove the cookies to a wire rack, and cool completely.

Store in an airtight container. Place a piece of wax paper between cookies layers to prevent the cookies from sticking together.
