Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup shelled pistachios, chopped
Instructions
- Cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually add to the wet ingredients.
- Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped pistachios until evenly distributed.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out portions of dough (about 2 tablespoons each) and place them on the sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a dairy-free option, use vegan butter and dairy-free white chocolate chips.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking for a chewier texture.
