White chocolate chip cookies are soft and buttery cookies with crisp edges, chewy centers and are filled with sweet morsels of white chocolate chips. They're quick and easy to make.
Slice the stick of butter into tablespoon sized pieces. Place them in a microwave safe bowl. Heat the butter for 45 seconds or until most of the butter is melted with some whole pieces floating in the melted butter.
In a large mixing bowl whisk together the butter with the light brown sugar and granulated sugar for 1 minute. Whisk in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Mix the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. Gently fold in the white chocolate chips until well combined. Cover the cookie dough and transfer to the fridge to chill for 30 minutes - 2 hours or up to overnight.
Cool the white chocolate cookies on the baking sheet for 5 - 10 minutes. Then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely to room temperature and enjoy.
