The Best White Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are the Best White Chocolate Chip Cookies ever! Buttery and soft cookies loaded with white chocolate chunks and crisp around the edges. An easy dessert that’s sure to become your family’s favorite white chocolate chip cookie.
My Favorite White Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’m sorry about these cookies in advance.
And I should also apologize about the name.
I sorta kinda hate when someone tells me something is the BEST. Well, because then I need to prove you wrong.
So let me say, these are the best white chocolate chip cookies that I ever ate. Is that better?
You see, usually white chocolate chip cookies come with other stuff mixed in, like coconut, or macadamia nuts.
Well, nuts aren’t my thing.
That’s what she said.
But really, they aren’t. Unless it’s peanut butter. Whatever.
And while I love coconut, there’s a time and place people. Time and place.
Plus, simple is pretty much better.
Never once have I ever heard, “Can you please make this recipe a little more complicated?”
Simple wins.
What Makes These White Chocolate Chip Cookies the Best?
Let’s talk about why these are the best.
First they are LOADED with white chocolate chunks.
(And also, makers of white chocolate…can you people please make mini white chocolate chips? While I wouldn’t use them in this recipe, I would work those guys out in other ways.)
Second, they are buttery and soft and an eensy bit crispy around the edges.
And thirdly, well…ALLTHEWHITECHOCOLATE!
How to Make This Easy Cookie Recipe
Here’s how I did them…
Brown sugar is key…
I used 20 ounces of white chocolate, chopped fairly coarsely.
I like the huge chunks in these cookies.
I’m not a huge chocolate chunk girl, but white is a whole different story.
The batter is pretty easy.
Once you get the chocolate chunks folded in, you can chill the dough OR you can bake them straight away. LOVE that option!
Form the dough into balls and place on a lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. You can use a cookie scoop too, whichever you prefer!
When they bake they’ll look like this…
I know, right?
So you should make these for sure.
I mean, if you like white chocolate…
And if you don’t, I’m not sure we can still be friends 🙂
I have adapted this recipe slightly over the years, based on reader feedback! I’ve made chilling the dough an optional step (although I still like to). And I tweaked a few ingredients based on mixed results. I love this recipe and with some of your comments I think these cookies can’t be beat!

My goodness. These cookies are insane. White chocolate chunk cookies were always my favorite growing up and I can see how awesome the texture is from the photos! I’m trying these the minute I get back from BlogHer Food =)
I used 3/4 cup butter and white chips.they turned out great.the parchment paper makes a big difference in the finished cookie. Its worth it to use it.

I don’t know if I can wait two overnights. One is doable, but I’ll end up sneaking big bites of dough when I get up for Lucy’s middle of the night feedings.
Pregnancy weight whaaa???
Umm…. YES! Wow, these looks the the best cookies! They look perfect, the shape, the texture all that white chocolate!! I love them!
They look like they could be the best white chocolate chip cookies! I’ll go it!
I’ve always wondered why white chocolate cookies have to have nuts in them! This is great, just white chocolate!
I do love white chocolate with coconut and macadamia nuts. Sorry. BUT I’d take these any day of the week!
Awesomeness!
They’re gorgeous! And nuts aren’t my thing either as a general rule in baked goods – UNLESS it’s PB. Then I am all over it 🙂 Ironically I have a nuts-in-cookies post tomorrow for the first time in like 4 years? Go figure. But I lllloove white chocolate. And your cookies look fab. And I’m the same with ‘the best’ – makes me want to prove it wrong 🙂
Those cookies look so delightful. You can see how chewy they are just from the pictures.
Not even a fan of white chocolate but these cookies look SO good right now.
The best ever?! Where do I sign up?! Love that you kept it simple too. Sometimes simple is best!
The pictures speak for themselves! I can totally see why you’d call these the best. They look perfect!! Count me in.
These look so perfectly soft and chewy! Yum!
Oh my! Those cookies look so yummy and gooey!
White Chocolate gets a bad rap sometimes, but I happen to like it. These cookies rock. They look perfect. I guess you’re right on that whole “best” thing!
Two whole nights? How do you have such self control??? And these cookies look pretty perfect to me!
I’m slowly turning into a white chocolate addict. I never used to bake with it, but I find myself adding it to everything now. These cookies look incredible!!
Whenever a recipe calls for cookies to chill overnight I KNOW it’ll be good. It always makes the most amazing texture. I’m going to trust you and leave out the macadamia nuts but it’s going against my instincts!
I love indulging in a white chocolate cookie (or twelve) once in a while, and yours look perfect, Shelly!
Only thing to make these better is the addition of Macadamia nuts. Buttery white goodness right here
Mmm white chocolate is my favorite kind of chocolate… even though I’ve been told it isn’t really chocolate at all…
These look delicious! I’ll have to try them out, as I like white chocolate more than regular chocolate.
Sold. Want. Need.
These look like great cookies! I love white chocolate cookies and have totally been looking for a great recipe. Score!
Ok, So I used to think that white choc chunk cookies needed something else too. Coconut, macadamias…something? But no! I made cookies not long ago that I put huge chunks of white chocolate in and the only something “extra” I did was sprinkle them with sea salt! Holy moly I ate three in a row, huddled over the counter. So, I totally understand this one! Can’t wait to try um.
PS totally jealous you’re out in Austin for the conference! Wish I could be there and meet you in person this year!
These look sooooo good! White chocolate is a nice switch to milk or dark chocolate. I agree…mini white chips please. 🙂
I love white chocolate! These look perfect. I need a cold glass of milk and about 6-24 of these and I would be one happy momma!
OMG…these look heavenly. I must try them STAT!
And I’m TOTALLY with you on the mini white chocolate chips. Why can’t I buy these in my local store right next to the mini chocolate chips?!? So many uses. Seriously.
I’m a believer! Off to get them started 🙂
Yum Yum.
Know what you mean about wanting the mini chips.
I have even contacted the company requesting that they make the mini white chocolate chips. Maybe we should all ban together and everyone contact them requesting the mini chips and just maybe someday they will be on the market………….you think?

You can certainly count me as your friend, because I’m all over this recipe! White chocolate cookies without the fancy coconut and nut add-ins…winner for me! I’ll have to make these once I get home (:
White chocolate is totally an underrated cookie mix-in…love these!
And can you please remind me of that little “no one ever asked to make something more complicated” tid-bit…I forget all too often.
http://www.verybestbaking.com/Archive/Premier-White-Mini-Morsel-Toppers.aspx
I use these Nestle Mini White chocolate Toppers like mini white chocolate chips!
Dangerous!!!
These look fantastic!
oh, these look utterly perfect! I love, love, love white chocolate. need these in my life.
thanks for the recipe! 🙂
Love those huge chunks of white chocolate!
Mmmmmmm!
I just plain love you . . . and if I weren’t sitting here at nearly 10pm waiting for some chocolate crumb cakes to finish baking I’d start making these . . . right now
Listen, I’m a white chocolate girl. Allllll the way. White chocolate is sweeter than regular chocolate, and I’m all about SWEET. These cookies are deathbed food to me. I could eat that entire pyrex cup full of white chocolate chunks. Oh mama.
Thanks for this!
Wait, chill t dough 2 nights in the fridge?
Can I wait that long?!
My husband actually prefers white chocolate to real chocolate, so I think these will definitely be happening. Also, you can’t go ten steps on this island without bumping into a mac nut, so their absence here is much appreciated. They’re good, but sometimes enough is enough. Like you said, a time and a place.
These look amazing!! I have some white chocolate in the cupboard calling my name, asking to be made into these delicious cookies. 🙂
I rarely ever make white chocolate chip cookies but dang, these look like serious business. I need to go buy some good quality white chocolate so that I can make these!
What is your favorite brand of white chocolate to use? I want to make these this weekend for a Tony Award Party on Sunday.
White chocolate is my favorite, and I love how you used chunks (I second the mini white chips). Two overnights is pushing it, but I could be patient with one night–if I don’t eat all the dough.
I don’t like nuts in my cookies either. So I’m loving this post!
how do you get them so flat? I like my cookies that way and they always come out really fluffy…
It probably has something to do with your baking sheet or your oven temperature if you’re following all the either directions the same…
They do have white chocolate chips. I’m using those (I got the chocolate before I found this recipe) thank you sooo much by the way. I’ve been online for hours looking for a cookie recipe with ONLY white chocolate.
These are literally the best white chocolate chip cookies. Delicious 🙂
I made these delicious cookies today! My husband couldn’t wait the 24hrs for them to chill overnight so I made a few to taste. They are amazing. I added coffee extract because I had a taste for a mocha flavor so I don’t know how the basic recipe tastes but the modified one I used was awesome. Great recipe thanks for sharing!
Thanks!!
★★★★★
These look FABULOUS! And I’m not even a big fan of white chocolate!
I’m so sad…. Didn’t see the 24 he thing til I mixed this so here I am dying to try them. I luv the recipe, very simple and easy to throw together. Can’t wait to taste more than dough!!!
They are best with a 24 hour chill… you could certainly make them without…they just might spread a bit more!
I waited the 24 hours and man oh man oh man! My neighbors love me, my husband loves me, my kids were in heaven. And I’m pretty dang impressed myself. These were what you said they are…. the best. Great easy recipe!
Love to hear this!

I prepared these yesterday at noon PST. I put them in balls today at 4:30pm PST. So a little over 24hours. They are thick cookies, not flat like the picture at all. I baked them at 350 for like 16 minutes, as they were not even remotely done at 9 minutes. I did follow the recipe to a tee- although I did not have chocolate chunks, I used what you recommended – 3 cups of white chips.
So all in all- still a very good cookie, but really thick and doughy, not flat and crispy.
But still good!
When I was growing up, I lived for Subway’s White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies. I would savor every bite while carefully picking out the nuts, because all I really wanted was the cookie and the white chocolate! These cookies were well worth the 24 hour wait! {I did make a batch right after I finished mixing the batter, and though they were good, they didn’t compare to the amazing yumminess I tasted a day later.} The brown sugar is the key. Mmmmm….I’ve already had three this morning and it’s only 9:17. 🙂
I’ve made these cookies twice already and they taste great … but they are too thick .. not spreading enough .. and I have to bake them much longer than 10 mins … any tips to remedy this ??
It looked really good on the page, but unfortunately mine came out rather squishy and almost cake-like
1 day gone another day left to bake these badboys 😀
You are so RIGHT these are the BEST cookies ever, cheers 🙂
Did I do something wrong? I just took the first batch out of the oven and they are puffed up like biscuits 🙁 They taste more like bread.
That happened to me too! The cookie didn’t expand and flatten out, and turned out like a biscuit
I haven’t ever had that issue before… you could eliminate the baking powder from the recipe to help with that issue, if it continues..how old were your baking soda/baking powder? Sometimes older leavening agents can reek havoc on cookies 🙂
Is that really a tablespoon and a half of vanilla extract? I have my dough chilling in the fridge right now, but I was too scared to use that much vanilla. I’ve never seen more than a teaspoon in a cookie recipe. So I put in 1.5 teaspoons… which is half a tablespoon. If these cookies don’t come out delicious, I’ll know it was the vanilla. Also, I used one bag (12 oz) of white chocolate chips and a bag (8 oz) of Heath Bar toffee pieces… White Chocolate Toffee cookies… I’ll let you all know tomorrow how they turned out! (although, I’m really bummed, I grabbed the wrong box from the cupboard and ended up using year-old baking soda for these cookies. I hope they don’t puff way up like the most recent comment!) I’ll be dreaming and drooling about these cookies tonight!
Love the cookies! Now do you have any tips on how to make a homemade layer cake moist?
Not sure what I am doing wrong. Mine flatten out (melt) completely. Had the right temperature and lenght in the oven. Any suggestions?
I’ve made these twice now, both times using only 1.5 teaspoons of vanilla. I still think the 1.5 tablespoons is just way too much. But I’ve also made them once refrigerating the dough and once without. By far, the better cookie is when I didn’t refrigerate. When I used the chilled dough, the cookies flattened out and the centers were ooey gooey. This isn’t a bad thing, but it’s not everybody’s thing. When I made the cookies from the fresh dough, the cookies didn’t puff way up, but didn’t flatten either, and they cooked evenly. I made them on Friday, and today, Monday, the cookies are still soft and delicious. My final modification is to use a 12 oz bag of white chocolate chips plus an 8 oz bag of Heath Bar Milk Chocolate Toffee pieces. These cookies are amazing!! Thanks for the recipe!
what happened to mine
What does the chilling the dough do? is it alright if its only chilled for 8-10 hours? D:
What does chilling the dough do? Is it ok if i chill it for 8-10 hours? D:
Yep, that will be fine! Chilling the dough gives the dough a chance to meld the flavors!
I was craving cookies, like I do most nights, and I found this great recipe. I was first won over by the fact that these are “simple” cookies. The fact that a bunch of other “stuff” wasn’t going to be thrown into this cookie was right up my alley. Then there was the witty sense of humor and outright honesty written in regards to this cookies great taste. I was further impressed by the fact that I only needed one bowl to mix everything…yay! And then they were done, and what??? I was in love. As my sister put it (’cause she knows I love a great review) “They taste like Granny’s tea cakes, mixed with your cookie.” A hearty “Thank Ya!!!” was all I needed to say; as I munched away. These truly are the best White Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever!!!
I am excited to make these for a friend of mine. The only thing I must say, “is if your cookies are going flat on you”. Some chocolates can contain to much palm oil.
P.S. Shelly! Why would I not love recipes from a lady that shares my name. Thank you, sistah! I can’t wait for more fun baking suggestions.
can I use dark brown sugar instead?
1 cup of butter = ? grams ?
thank you xx
sure, you can use dark brown sugar… obviously it will change the flavor a little bit, but it will be fine! Also a cup is roughly 225 grams.
thank you shelly, beautiful blog and recipes 🙂

Is there a difference between white chocolate chips and the white chocolate bars?
I believe that the bars have a slightly higher fat content keeping them a little softer than chips or baking bars
I was wondering what altitude you are baking this cookies at. Usually I have to add a few tablespoons of flour to keep my cookies from going flat (at 4000 ft.) but these didn’t look like they needed it so I didn’t. But they were very big and fat, not like yours.
I just made these cookies. Mine don’t look like yours. Mine are more cake-like. Would you why?
That’s really strange!! Maybe you could let them come up to room temperature before baking them after they chill. That might help them spread more.
Would you “know” why.
Mine came out puffy like biscuits. However, very delicious. Not sure what I did wrong. I refrigerated them for 24 hrs and followed the recipe…any idea?
Mine too, and I’m a little disgruntle about it
Hi. I’m making these cookies for a good friend who is sick and craving nut-free chocolate chip cookies with white chocolate instead of regular semi-sweet chips. Your recipe fits the bill, so I went to my local Whole Foods to buy a variety of white chocolate options, intending to use whatever tasted best to me. Much to my surprise, Whole Foods sells a White Chocolate Chip under their store brand, 365! I’d never noticed it before. I bought a bag and also bought two other brands of white chocolate bars – A Ghirardelli Premium Baking Bar of White Chocolate and a bar of Green & Black’s Organic White Chocolate.
They also sold Ghirardelli White Baking Chips, but they had zero Cocoa butter in them so I didn’t bother. (In order to be labeled “White Chocolate” there must be a minimum of 20% cocoa butter. The Ghirardelli white chips had none and were made with Palm Oil as I recall Anyway, the 365 brand chips were definitely called White Chocolate and list Cocoa butter as a primary ingredient.
I opend the Ghiradrdelli bar and it was sublime – melted immediately and smooth and sweet and tasty. Then I opened the bag of 365 chips. First of all THEY WERE MINI CHIPS!!!! (I’m writing this in caps to catch the Shelly’s attention, since she was wishing for mini white chocolate chips above!)
Then I tasted a few. They might be a tad less amazing than the Ghirardelli chips, but they are amazing! They were much less expensive, too, and no chopping needed since they are already mini chips.
I’m probably going to return the unopened bars (I bought two of each, and nothing good will come from them being in my house…).
Now to get started on the batter. I’ll post back with my results.
I made these tonight. I baked some and made them in balls put in freezer for a few minutes then cooked @ 375. They look like hers, they are good. I put the rest of the dough in the fridge. I am sure they will be just as good too.
Hi I just made 100 of these cookies for a charity bake sale that’s sunday. Would it be best if i froze the cookies or just packaged them in celo and leave them out. Thanks. So much.
I would freeze them!
So seriously looking forward to giving these a try! I LOVE LOVE LOVE white chocolate, but I absolutely despise macadamia nuts in anything ever ever. Walnuts too, YUCK to both. So this recipe looks so amazing!
Hi- I’ve tried these twice, and I can’t understand what i’m doing wrong they come out all swollen and puffy. Not the consistency shown in your pic. Can you tell me what I’ve done wrong?
★
The issue must lie with your baking sheet…what type are you using? I use thin aluminum or stainless baking sheets lined with parchment. Never thick or insulated baking sheets…this change alone will effect your cookie!
Thanks, Shelly! I’m using a round nonstick pizza sheet pan. I was reading the other comments and I’ll also try bringing them back up to room temp and see how it works out. I doubled the recipe so I have a lot of cookie dough to get rid of. My husband voiced his complaint this morning, but I swear I followed the recipe to the letter both times :-(.
I altered the recipe a little. I didn’t have eggs so I added 1/2 cup vegetable oil and another 1/2 cup flour for extra soakage. Only 2 cups of white chocolate chips.
So good. Best ever. My family keeps having me make a batch every week. 36 cookies come out of this easily!
★★★★★
Made these tonight. The cookies look good but maybe it’s the grocery store brand of white chocolate chips I bought that aren’t doing it for me 🙁 They’re a tad bit too sweet. The cookie itself needs something. I just taste sweet white chocolate overload.
★★★
I really wish this and other recipes would specify using salted or unsalted butter! I only use unsalted butter and add additional salt, if neededYou may have “tweaked” this recipe to make it work better but PLEASE indicate whether to use salted butter it not…makes a HUGE difference. I will make these once I get a reply. Thanks!
I always use salted, but if you prefer unsalted, no worries, just add an additional 1/4 teaspoon of salt!
I rarely eat white chocolate chip cookies because of the macadamia nuts. Hate those! Whose idea was it to put them in cookies? Glad I found your recipe, gonna give it a try.
These are hands down the best white chocolate chip cookies ever! Made them a few weeks ago for my neighbors and they ask almost everyday when I’m going to make them again. The description above is NOT an exaggeration! These are awesome!
My daughter, home from college, wanted white chocolate chip cookies. I made these and they are truly THE BEST! My daughter and husband cannot stop telling me how great they are. Thank you for giving me a gold star at my house!
Thank you!!! They are really a favorite of mine too!!
I found your recipe on Pinterest after my 6 year old daughter had a friend over and they asked for dessert. All I had on hand was strawberry / white chocolate baking wafers and purple white chocolate baking wafers. I decided to call then “Tangled” cookies due to the pink and purples chips (Disney’s Rapunzel wears a pink and purple dress). Major success! Thx:)
What a FUN IDEA!!!
Fantastic recipe!! Will make these again and again!
For extra chewey cookies: I always add 1T Cornstarch; melt butter then cool it in fridge before adding; use room temp eggs; rotate cookies half way through cook time; & cool cookies half way on sheet and the rest on rack. And, of xourse as you said, take the cookies out before they’re fully cookies– don’t overbake!! Also, added Butterfinger bits just bc :). Thanks so much for the yummy cookie recipe, they made my girls-night complete & my roommates happy!!
★★★★★
Great tips!!
I’d use less baking soda and sugar. They came out too cakey and sweet. I wasted my good white chocolate ????
My batter was very runny. I had to add an extra cup of flour. I followed all the steps and exact measures. What could have been yhe problem?
★★★★★
What is the original recipe that was created before the modifications based on the comments of others? I believe it contained 3 eggs and a baking temperature of 375 degrees, but I cannot remember the rest. Thanks.
hi may I know if I can just halve this recipe?will it affect anything?
You should be fine with cutting the recipe in half.
Best recipe ever! thanks for this wonderful recipe! Everyone loved them at home!White chocolate chip cookies have always been my favourites! Thanks a lot!
In the process of baking these right now and the first batch is out of the oven and a total hit! Winner! Thanks for sharing! I’ll be making these again for sure!
I would omit the extra salt if i were to use this recipe again. My cookies were strangely salty. If the recipe called for unsalted butter then maybe you should change it. Other than that it was a good recipe
Salted or unsalted butter?
I use salted, but it’s a personal preference!
True – the absolute BEST cookies I have ever tasted!!! Thanks so much for this recipe and instructions.
why are all these idiots commenting on how the cookies look? waste of a post.
Im baking these right now! I’ll let you. Know how they turn out!
They didnt flatten.. Not sure why. Ive had this problem with multiple recipes…..any ideas? I turned the oven up to 400 for the next dozen…
Try different pans/sheets. When I bake them on a shiny metal sheet pan, they flatten, but when I use a dark non-stick pan, they stay poofy.
This is a fantastic cookie dough recipe! Thank you for sharing ! I added macadamia nuts and white chocolate covered Reeses peanut butter cups…….YUM
Love that idea!!
Love when you can see just how beautifully soft and chewy those cookies will be, well done! I found a recipe which uses dulce de leche along with the white chocolate cookies (https://www.recipestroupe.com/recipe-white-chocolate-covered-sandwich-cookies-50885.html), but dom you know any other “extras” you could add? I hear raspberry and white choc go well together
These taste good but came out really flat. Any suggestions to improve?
I tried these today, and they were fantastic! They were perfectly chewy and the sweetness was spot on. It tastes awesome even without the white chocolate chips!
They were too sweet and for half the cup I replaced with coconut sugar which doesn’t have a very strong sweet taste
This is by far the best recipe I have found for cookie dough! Thank you for sharing.
So glad you like it as much as I do!
Great recipe…my daughter loved them!!
I am the Biggest white chocolate fan one could meet and I thought I was the only one til I found this recipe and reviews I am so very happy! A recommended brand of chocolate to use? I love how sweet and white chocolatey these will be! Will be making these for Valentines Day for sure! Thank you!!!!!!
I also prefer ghirardelli. It find it’s the best quality that is widely available 🙂
Hands down, worst cookies I’ve ever tasted. As many of the comments said, they were huge and cakey, not at all chewy. Worse, there is FAR too much vanilla. I didn’t even use as much as it calls for and still, it’s all you can taste. Can’t even taste the white chocolate. What a waste. All 30 of them went in the trash. Can’t even pawn these off at work. So so awful.

These cookies are so good! My in-laws request these specific ones whenever I have to bring cookies to a family event now. They’re easy and super yummy!
★★★★★
Just made these today, in hopes of using them for a fundraiser bake sale. They turned out horribly. First of all, the amount of white chocolate was ridiculous to me, way too much white chocolate per each cookie. Secondly, they all started to burn on the bottom while the top was very undercooked. We used parchment paper at this point and it helped a bit. I will not be using these cookies for the bake sale. They are an embarrassment.
★
So sorry you had this experience! In the directions it does specify to use parchment paper when baking. I make this recipe all the time and have never had an issue. The base cookie recipe is fairly standard, so I’m not sure what could have gone wrong. Possibly your oven heats a little high? Just trying to brainstorm what could have happened!

I made these and they were amazing! I want to make them again but my friend hates white chocolate, so I wanted to make half white and half normal. I know nothing about baking – can I take half of this dough and roll in some normal chocolate to appease my weirdo friend that hates white chocolate? Thanks so much!
★★★★★
Just divide the dough in half before you stir in the white chocolate. Use half the amount of white chocolate in one of the halves and semi-sweet chips in the other half ad bake as usual!
Thank you so much!
These are literally the best cookies I have ever had. I hate that they always call for those gross nuts. I would say if you are using salted butter, then don’t add in the additional salt. They are so awesome!!!

I just tried these cookies and they really are ‘The best white chocolate chip cookies’. They have such a wonderful milk toffee like taste to them!
This recipe is definitely one you want to keep making!
So glad you liked them!!
Pingback : White Chocolate Chip cookies – Foodielogs
I stopped and gave you 5 stars before even starting, because this HAS to be awesome, because you are part of the rare manority that says “NUTS SUCK!” It is a hard place to be. (Except peanut butter of course, but ai don’t think that counts). Thank you for providing as many nutless recipes as possible! Yay!
★★★★★
I swear I love how u wrote this <3 so normal and down to earth! I know your a good person just by reading this.
I followed the recipe exactly and mine came out noticeably salty (even with unsalted butter).
My first batch puffed up and was soft but too thick for my liking. I flattened the second batch by hand with a piece of parchment paper and they stayed nice and flat.
I didn’t hate the cookies, but I’ll be sure to go easy on the salt next time. Not sure if I want to give these to my coworkers tomorrow…
