These yummy, delish Chocolate Fudge White Chocolate Chip Cookies are loaded with rich & creamy white chocolate chips in soft fudgy chocolate cookies! They are quite irresistible!
We’ve got Vegan & Gluten Free Options as well and they taste just as amazing! You’ll love these
They are an easy chocolate chip drop cookie version, like these classic Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies, except we reversed the butter cookie to chocolate and the semi-sweet chocolate chips to white chocolate chips.
I love eating white chocolate chips by the handful. Quite often, actually for a quick chocolate fix, it does the trick. Of course, by adding them in cookies, creamy white chocolate chips take these to another surprising level, providing these cookies with a delicious mild white chocolate flavor paired with a dark chocolate fudgy brownie-like cookie.
Like I said, irresistible! I love how thick and fudgy these Chocolate Fudge White Chocolate Chip Cookies are!
Now, all we need, is a tall glass of cold milk, these cookies and some Hallmark movies, all snuggled in a blankie, without a worry in the world.
Observation? That can be arranged and no need to chill your dough, (unless you want to) so you can have these right in front of your sweet little face in no time.
Of course, this is the time of year cookies are at their peak! These are perfect for gifting and cookie exchanges for sure, because cookies make everything better. No doubt about that and just to prove my point, how many times have cookies not made you happy? See what I mean? 🙂
Ingredients You Need
- unsalted butter, cold cut into cubes, can use plant-based butter if vegan option
- brown sugar packed
- granulated sugar
- eggs or applesauce, if vegan option
- vanilla extract
- all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour measured correctly (scoop and level method)
- special dark or Dutch processed cocoa powder, measured correctly and clump free sift if needed (scoop and level method)
- baking powder
- salt
- white chocolate chips, plus extra if you want to press in tops of cookies after baked, use vegan chocolate chips if wanting vegan option
How to Make Chocolate Cookies with White Chocolate Chips
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line a baking sheet or two with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add cubed cold butter and sugar. Beat with an electric mixer on medium to medium-high until combined and creamy.
- Add egg and vanilla. Beat again until combined by not overmixing.
- Add flour, salt, baking powder and cocoa powder and beat together on low speed just until a chocolate dough comes together.
- Fold in the white chocolate chips.
- Using a medium cookie scoop, (1 & ½ tablespoons), scoop cookie dough onto baking sheet and press some white chocolate chips on top, but don’t add more white chocolate chips until they are done baking. This helps the white chocolate chips not to brown on top.
- Leave room for the cookies to spread very slightly. If dough is warm, refrigerate for 30 minutes or so.
- Bake for approximately 8-10 minutes. Gooier for 8 minutes.
- Cookies should be starting to firm up but still soft in the middle. Remove from the oven and press a few white chocolate chips on top if desired. Don’t do this before baking, as it will make the chocolate chips caramel colored.
- Let cookies set on cookie tray to cool before removing them to cool completely on a wire rack. So good with a glass of milk!
- Allow to cool completely prior to storing.
Cookie Tips
- For fudgiest cookies, bake 8 minutes. They will continue cooking after removing from oven.
- If cookies are not thick enough, place the cookie dough in the fridge for at least 30 minutes and try again.
