How to Make Death By White Chocolate Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips on high for 2-minute intervals, stirring until completely smooth and melted.
  3. Add 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened unsalted butter, 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the melted chocolate. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined and creamy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 1 cup of white chocolate chips and ½ cup of chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans recommended).
  7. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 13-14 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
