Time 2h55m

Yield about 25 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 egg, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup white chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Beat the butter in a large bowl with a hand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar, granulated sugar and salt and continue to beat on medium speed until pale and creamy, 2 minutes. Add the cocoa powder, vanilla and egg; mix on low to incorporate. Add the flour, beating on low speed until just incorporated (a few streaks is fine). Switch to a rubber spatula and fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Turn out the dough onto a large piece of plastic wrap, form into a disk and wrap tightly. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Generously dust the dough and work surface with flour. Roll out the dough to a 1/3-inch thickness; if the dough cracks around the edges, simply press it back together. Use cookie cutters to cut out the desired shapes. Place the cookies, 1 inch apart, on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake until just beginning to brown around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through.
  • Cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets before removing the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

These cookies are a bit dry. I think I'll try adding a little more butter next time.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to spread in the oven. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These cookies are a little too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

I've tried many double chocolate butter cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are so soft and moist, and the chocolate flavor is out of this world. I highly recommend this recipe!
