Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1/4 cup shortening
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups white chocolate chips (divided)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350F degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or baking mats.
  • In a large bowl beat together the butter, shortening, white sugar and brown sugar until fluffy (about 2 minutes).
  • Beat in the vanilla and eggs.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda & salt.
  • Carefully beat the flour mixture into the butter about 1/2 at a time. I usually start with the mixer on low speed, then turn it up to medium as I go.
  • Turn off the mixer and stir in 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips.
  • Form the dough into balls about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons in size. Place 2 inches apart on the lined cookie sheets. Do not flatten.
  • Bake one tray at a time on the middle rack of the oven for 9-11 minutes or until the tops look just set. 
  • Remove from the oven and dot the tops of each cookie with a few extra chocolate chips (optional).
  • Cool on the cookie tray for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling.
