- When ready to bake preheat oven to 350°. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Using a medium cookie scoop, portion out the dough and place 2 inches apart on baking sheet.

Notes
You can substitute in nuts or semi-sweet chips for the white chocolate chips, if desired.
You don’t have to let the dough chill, but cookies may spread more if you don’t. I prefer the dough to chill, as I find the flavors come together better and also, the cookie bakes nicer, in my opinion.
