Mix-Ins:
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup shelled pistachios, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

- Add Mix-Ins: Fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped pistachios.
- Bake: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Cool: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
- For an extra creamy flavor, add a handful of white chocolate chunks along with the chips.
- If you prefer chewier cookies, slightly underbake and let them finish setting on the baking sheet.
