Total Time: 27 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer. Beat on medium speed for 3-4 minutes until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Incorporate the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt to ensure even distribution of dry ingredients.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the white chocolate chips using a spatula, distributing them evenly throughout the cookie dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly soft.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Ensure your butter is truly softened but not melted - this is crucial for achieving the perfect cookie texture.
- Don't overmix the dough, as this can make the cookies tough. Mix just until ingredients are combined.
- Use room temperature eggs for better incorporation and smoother batter.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking for thicker, more flavorful cookies.
- Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookie sizes and even baking.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes to help them set properly.
- For extra richness, slightly underbake the cookies to maintain a soft, chewy center.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent them from drying out.
