About these cookies

Sometimes you want a change from a classic chocolate chip cookie, and these chewy cookies with white chocolate chip are the perfect solution!
They’re rich and fudgy, with a deep chocolate flavor. This pairs really well with sweet white chocolate chips.

Just a few ingredients

  • Butter: This can be salted or unsalted butter. Soften the butter to room temperature before using.
  • Granulated sugar & light brown sugar: A mix of brown and white sugar brings the right amount of moisture and chewiness to the cookie, with ever so slightly crisp edges.
  • Unsweetened natural cocoa powder: This recipe doesn’t work as well with Dutch-processed cocoa.
  • Egg, vanilla, salt
  • All-purpose flour + baking soda: The base and rising agent.
  • White chocolate chips: or chop up a bar of white chocolate into chunks. Use real white chocolate, not compound chocolate.

Extra round cookies

If you would like to achieve the extra round cookie look for perfect cookies, you’ll need a circle cookie cutter or glass that’s bigger than your cookies. Once the cookies are baked, and still hot from the oven, use the cutter or glass and place it over the hot cookie, then swirl it gently around the cookie.

This will help form it into a perfect circle. The cookies need to be hot, and not over-baked for this to work.

Storing

These delicious cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. The baked cookies can also be frozen for up to three months, wrapped in plastic wrap or a freezer-safe bag. If you make a big batch of cookies that’s perfect to curb future cravings!

The unbaked cookie dough balls freeze really well too. Roll the dough into balls and freeze them in an air-tight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. They can be baked from frozen with no need to thaw. They will need a little longer baking time.

  • In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer add the room temperature butter and granulated sugar and brown sugar.

  • Add in the egg and vanilla extract and beat on medium speed until combined. 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • Cover the bowl of dough and chill it in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
  • Pre-heat the oven to 350°F/180°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Use a cookie scoop or spoon, to scoop around 1.5 tablespoons of dough for each cookie ball. 
  • Space the balls of dough around 2 inches apart on the lined baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for around 10 minutes until baked around the edges but the middles are still soft. The exact baking time will depend on your own oven.
  • You can press in a few extra chocolate chips into the tops of the cookies while they are still hot. Let the cookies cool on the baking tray for 5-10 minutes to firm up before removing and placing them on a wire rack to cool further. Enjoy a still slightly warm cookie with a cold glass of milk.
