Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups white chocolate chunks
- 1 cup sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the white chocolate chunks and sliced almonds until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing each cookie about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are still soft.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your delicious White Chocolate Chunk Almond Cookies!
