Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup crushed candy canes

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract and mix well.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually combine dry ingredients with the wet mixture until just mixed; avoid overmixing.
  6. Gently fold in white chocolate chips and crushed candy canes.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving space for spreading.

  9. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
