  • Total Time: 32 minutes
  • Yield: 24 cookies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup crushed candy canes

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in the white chocolate chips and crushed candy canes.
  7. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  9. Let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For softer cookies, slightly underbake them. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the dough for up to 2 months; thaw before baking. For a richer flavor, use high-quality white chocolate chips.
