French vanilla pudding mix and brown sugar make these Chewy White Chocolate Cookies rich, chewy and irresistible. Skip white chocolate chips and cut up your favorite white chocolate bar into chunks.
I hate to say it but it is Earthquake weather here in California. Or at least that’s what I and my girlfriends are thinking. It started raining yesterday, there has been no sun, and its still SOOOOO hot and humid. I hate it. So naturally, I haven’t been baking that much because I am just tooo hot to turn the oven on and deal with washing dishes.
When I do bake, I tend to do it at night. And when you have warm cookies coming out of the oven while you are sitting on the sofa watching your favorite tv shows its only natural to grab some ice cream to make an at-home pizookie. Am I right? HELL YES I AM!
I have had three pizookies with these white chocolate cookies. So good. The cookies are great on their own as well but everything is better with ice cream..cakes, cookies, pie, brownies… the list goes on…
How do you make Chewy White Chocolate Cookies?
Start off by mixing together flour, baking soda, and salt. Then you want to add our special ingredient- French Vanilla Pudding Mix. The pudding helps create a moist and chewy cookie.
Then in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment beat the butter, vanilla extract, and sugars for 2 minutes on medium-high speed. You want them to be fully incorporated and fluffy. Add in the large eggs one at a time, continuing to beat for another 2 minutes.
Slow the mixture down and slowly add the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in white chocolate chips or chunks. I prefer to chop up a white chocolate bar, I find that white chocolate tastes much better than chips.
Scoop cookie dough into mounds and cover with plastic wrap or plastic container and place in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours to chill.
Preheat oven to 350F and on a half sheet pan lined with a Silpat liner place your cookie dough balls then bake for 8-10 minutes, unti lthe cookie dough is just set and start to brown on the edges. Let tray cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes then transfer cookies to a wire rack.
You could, of course, add macadamia nuts but why would you ruin these delicious cookies with nuts? That was always my gripe with white chocolate cookies growing up they always came with nuts. I used to pick the nuts out or eat around them.
Luckily I didn’t have to with these. The pudding mix makes these cookies chewy for days.. but let’s be honest when do cookies last for days? 😉
