Blizzard Cookies
Description
In Blizzard Cookies, softened butter and cream cheese are creamed together, then combined with granulated and brown sugars to form a light and fluffy base. The addition of egg and vanilla enriches the mixture. Dry ingredients including all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt are carefully incorporated to create a thick dough. White chocolate chips and colored sprinkles provide sweetness and visual appeal.
The dough is chilled to firm it up before baking, which helps control spread and maintain a soft, chewy texture inside while the edges set. The resulting cookies have a tender crumb with creamy pockets of melted white chocolate and bursts of color from sprinkles, making them appropriate for festive occasions or a sweet treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened to room temperature
- 4 oz cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 egg large
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips premium
- ¼ cup Sprinkles colored
Instructions
- In KitchenAid, cream together butter and cream cheese until well-combined.
- Add sugars and beat on medium-high speed for 2 minutes, until light and fluffy. Pause mid-way through to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Add egg and beat until combined.
- Stir in vanilla extract.
- In separate, medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
- With KitchenAid on low speed, gradually add flour mixture until completely combined.
- Stir in white chocolate chips (low-speed), and pause to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Add colored sprinkles and stir until just combined (by hand is preferable, but the dough is quite sticky and thick, so you may mix briefly on low-speed).
- Cover and transfer to refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350F and line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Once cookie dough has chilled, remove from fridge and scoop/roll into 1 ½" balls. Place on parchment paper and slightly flatten with your hand or with the bottom of a clean glass. Add additional sprinkles if desired.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, remove from oven and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes on cookie sheet before transferring to cooling rack to cool completely.
