In this recipe, we're taking the traditional cookie to new heights by incorporating luxurious white chocolate chips, resulting in a cookie that's not only visually stunning but also bursting with flavor. So grab your apron, preheat your oven, and let's dive into the delightful world of cookies!
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Cream Butter and Sugars:
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla:
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Then, mix in the vanilla extract until incorporated.
- Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
- Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Add White Chocolate Chips:
Gently fold in the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop and Shape:
sing a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie for spreading.
- Bake Cookies:
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may seem slightly underdone, but they will continue to set as they cool.
- Cool and Serve:
Allow the white chocolate chip cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
- Be cautious not to overmix the dough once you add the dry ingredients. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies rather than soft texture.
- Opt for high-quality white chocolate chips or chunks for the best flavor and texture.
- Feel free to personalize your cookies by adding chopped nuts, dried fruits, or even a hint of citrus zest for extra flavor dimensions.
