Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup crushed candy canes

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in white chocolate chips and crushed candy canes until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden; centers may appear underbaked but will firm up as they cool.
  9. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
