Ingredients
- 3 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter at room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips
- ⅔ cup salted cashew pieces
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and very lightly grease a baking sheet OR line with parchment or a baking mat.
- In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl cream together butter and sugars.
- Mix in eggs and vanilla.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Stir in chocolate chips and cashew pieces.
- Use a large cookie scoop (I actually use an ice cream scoop) to scoop cookie dough into mounds and arrange at least 2-3 inches apart on your prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes until cookies begin to brown just around the very edges. Allow to cool on the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Repeat with remaining cookie dough. Store in airtight container up to 1 week (though they won't make it that long without being eaten - just sayin').
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Pro Tip: For beautiful cookies, reserve about 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips and place them individually in the tops of the cookie dough mounds just before baking.
