Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- Edible glitter or shimmer dust (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the white chocolate chips and dark chocolate chips.
- For a shadow effect, divide the dough into two bowls. In one bowl, mix in the cocoa powder to create a darker dough.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of both doughs and roll them into balls.
- Layer a dark dough ball on top of a light dough ball and gently press them together.
- Place the cookie balls on a lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
- Once cooled, sprinkle with edible glitter or shimmer dust for an extra aesthetic touch.
Notes
- For best results, use high-quality chocolate chips.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate or add nuts for added texture.
- Store cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
