Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
- Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
- Beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy.
- Add eggs and vanilla; beat until well combined.
- Gradually beat in the flour mixture until just combined.
- Stir in semi-sweet chocolate chunks and white chocolate pieces.
- Drop heaping teaspoonfuls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until edges are golden brown and centers are still slightly soft.
- Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
Tips & Substitutions
For a chewier texture, try chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. If you don’t have brown sugar, you can substitute it with an equal amount of granulated sugar mixed with a tablespoon of molasses. Experiment with different types of chocolate chips, like dark or milk chocolate, to create your own flavor combination.
Serving Suggestions
These cookies are delicious on their own but can be elevated with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert. Serve them alongside a glass of cold milk or coffee for the perfect pairing. They also make a great addition to a dessert platter with other treats like Banana Pudding(Lighter Eating - 6 Points) or Chocolate Dream Layer Cake.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze the cookies in a single layer, then transfer to a freezer bag. To reheat, simply warm in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for a few minutes until soft.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use different types of chocolate?
Absolutely! You can substitute semi-sweet chocolate with dark chocolate for a richer flavor, or use milk chocolate for a sweeter cookie. Just make sure to adjust the amount based on your taste preference.
What can I do if my cookies are too flat?
If your cookies spread too much, ensure your butter is not too warm when mixing. Additionally, check that you're using the correct measurements of flour and baking soda, as too little flour can cause spreading.
Can I make these cookies ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough and refrigerate it for up to 3 days before baking. Alternatively, you can freeze the dough in balls and bake them directly from the freezer; just add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.
