White chocolate chip cookie

Just made a new cookie - only because I had white chocolate chips instead of semi sweet chips.

I like this recipe because it doesn't have nuts- for some reason, I don't like nuts in desserts.


See the recipe below... I substituted a 12 ounce package of white chocolate chips for the chopped white chocolate

  • 1 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1½ Tablespoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 2½ cups flour
  • 20 oz coarsely chopped white chocolate (2½ - 3 cups) You can use white chips as well

  1. Preheat oven to 350° and line an baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
  2. In bowl of stand mixer cream together butter and both sugars for 2 minutes in medium speed.
  3. Turn speed to low and add in eggs and vanilla. Turn mixer back up to medium and beat until smooth, about 20 seconds.
  4. Turn mixer back to low and add in salt, baking soda, baking powder and flour, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fold in white chocolate chunks.
  6. Form dough into heaping tablespoon sized balls (I used a 2 Tbsp cookie scoop), placing 2 inches apart on baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden around edges. Don't over-bake.
  8. Allow to cool on baking sheet for 3-5 minutes before transferring to wire rack to finish cooling.
