White chocolate chip cookies
Description
This recipe blends room temperature unsalted butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy, incorporating vanilla extract and eggs to form a smooth base. Dry ingredients—flour, baking soda, and salt—are whisked to ensure even distribution before adding to the wet mixture. White chocolate chips are folded in, with an optional step to add extra chips on top for appearance and texture. Dough portions are spaced about three inches apart on lined baking sheets to accommodate spreading.
Baked at 360°F for about 10 minutes, the cookies develop a lightly golden edge while maintaining a soft center. Cooling on wire racks prevents sogginess and helps the cookies firm slightly. The resulting cookies are sweet with creamy pockets from the white chocolate and a buttery undertone.
Using room temperature butter prevents lumpy batter and ensures even texture. Avoid crowding cookies on baking sheets to prevent merging while baking. The dough can be chilled or stored in the refrigerator if preparing ahead, and parchment paper or silicone mats help prevent sticking. Cookie scoops help maintain uniform size for even baking.
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (270g)
- 1/2 tsp baking soda (3g)
- 1 cup unsalted butter 230g, room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (100g)
- 1 cup light brown sugar 200g, packed
- 3/4 tsp salt (4g)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract 10ml, pure
- 2 egg large
- 2 cups white chocolate chips (300g) divided
Instructions
- Heat oven to 360F and line baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper. Whisk flour, salt and baking soda together then set aside.
- Combine butter and granulated sugar in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or a large bowl if using an electric hand mixer. Beat on high until light and fluffy then add the brown sugar and continue mixing until well-combined.
- Add the vanilla extract then mix in the eggs one at a time and scrape the bowl down one last time.
- Add the flour mixture and mix on low until almost combined then add the white chocolate chips. If you'd like to add white chocolate chips on top then reserve a handful.
- Scoop two-tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place 3 inches apart on your lined cookie sheets. Bake at 360F for about 10 minutes or until the edges are golden. If you're adding chips on top then bake for 8 minutes, add chips on top and continue baking 2-3 minutes.
Notes
- Use room temperature butter to achieve a smooth, consistent cookie dough.
- Keep cookies spaced about 3 inches apart on baking sheets to avoid merging as they spread.
- Chilling dough is optional but good for advance preparation and texture control.
- Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats to prevent sticking.
- Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop for even-sized cookies.
- Allow cookies to cool completely on wire racks before serving for best texture.
