Ingredients

  • 1 cup salted butter softened
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp almond extract (optional)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 1/2 cups white chocolate chips divided use

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer cream together the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla and almond extracts. Beat on medium-high speed for 2 minutes until creamy and light beige in color.
  • Add the eggs one at a time beating well after each addition. Stop and scrape the sides of the bowl periodically.
  • In a medium bowl use a whisk to sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
  • With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the sifted dry ingredients to the creamed mixture stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • By hand mix in 2 cups white chocolate chips until evenly distributed. The dough will be fairly stiff.
  • Use a medium (1 1/2 tablespoon) ice cream scoop to divide the dough placing at least 2-3 inches apart on the pans. Gently press the remaining 1/2 cup white chocolate chips onto the tops.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Cool on the pan for 3-5 minutes then move to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Store tightly covered at room temperature for up to 5 days.
