Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Add-ins

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and salt until light and fluffy.

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Stir in the white chocolate chips, reserving some for topping if desired.
  • Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For a festive twist, consider adding dried cranberries or chopped macadamia nuts to the dough. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
