White Freckled Cookies

MAKES: 24 (about 2 dozen)

COOK TIME: 25 Min

After we decide to make these, we're left with one tough decision to tackle: Which part do we like better, the white chocolate chips or the chocolate cookie dough? Now that's a yummy task!

What You'll Need

1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 tablespoons light cream
2 cups (12 ounces) white baking chips

What to Do

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, combine flour and baking soda; set aside. In another large bowl, with an electric beater, cream together butter and sugars; add vanilla and mix well. Add cocoa and beat until well blended. Add cream and continue beating on low speed while gradually adding flour mixture; beat until mixed. Stir in baking chips. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets; flatten cookies slightly with palm of your hand.
Bake 12 to 14 minutes, until golden around edges; cookies should still feel soft. Do not overbake. Cool 2 minutes on cookie sheets, then remove to wire racks to cool completely.
