Ingredients

1/2 pound unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
2/3 cup good unsweetened cocoa
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds good white chocolate, coarsely chopped

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Cream the butter and 2 sugars until light and fluffy in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the vanilla, then the eggs, 1 at a time, and mix well. Add the cocoa and mix again. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt and add to the chocolate with the mixer on low speed until just combined. Fold in the chopped white chocolate.

Drop the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, using a 1 3/4-inch ice cream scoop or a rounded tablespoon. Dampen your hands and flatten the dough slightly. Bake for exactly 15 minutes (the cookies will seem underdone). Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Best Cookies of All-Time
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have made many batches of these cookies, and they are absolutely the best I have ever made. I even have used half... whole-wheat pastry flour and half white flour and they were just as good. Be sure to use both room temperature eggs and butter. Also, strangely, I've found these cookies taste kind of mediocre when they're warm out of the oven, and AMAZING after they have cooled. A note on white chocolate: these cookies taste much better when you use REAL white chocolate, which must contain cocoa butter. Nestle's "premiere white morsels" do not contain cocoa butter. Chopping up white chocolate bars can be expensive; I've found white chocolate chunks at Whole Foods (their brand) for $2.99/bag; by far the best value. Trust me, it makes a huge difference.Read more

Crowd Pleaser
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made these for a charity event and they went quickly. I found white chocolate chunks in a bag at whole foods, their own... brand. I used only 1 bag which was a good amount. Mine were not chewy but were soft like brownies inside. I tried a smaller size cookie and the size in the recipe worked best. Don't forget to flatten before baking as I did for my first batch. I had read the reviews and baked from 10-12 minutes and stored in a airtight container after cooled. The recipe made just under 3 dozen. Will make again!!Read more

Best Cookies I've Ever Tasted
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These cookies are amazing! They are so delicious and beautiful to look at, and have a lovely soft texture. I used... Ghiradelli cocoa powder and Ghiradelli white chocolate chips and the taste was just to die for. Everyone loved them (I made them for a Christmas party) and the taste is absolutely heavenly. I will be making this recipe for many many years! They are the best cookies I've ever had - storebought or homemade.Read more

The best!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These are the best cookies that I have made. They have a semi crispy bottom and edge but still retain the moist, soft and... chewy center. Better than Mrs. Fields! Super easy to make! You'll get compliments galore!Read more
