07 - Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing approximately 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.

# Helpful Hints:

01 -
  • The texture is absolutely perfect with crisp cookie pieces and soft white chocolate creating the most satisfying chew
  • These cookies strike that magical balance between nostalgic childhood flavors and something that feels like an elevated homemade treat
  • The dough comes together in under 20 minutes but tastes like you spent all afternoon channeling your inner pastry chef
02 -
  • Overmixing once you add the flour makes tough cookies so stop as soon as the dry streaks disappear
  • These cookies continue baking on the hot sheet so pulling them out when centers look slightly soft is the secret to perfect chewiness
03 -
  • Press a few extra cookie pieces into the tops before baking for that bakery worthy visual appeal
  • A pinch of espresso powder enhances the chocolate without making these taste like coffee
