Chewy White Chocolate Cashew Cookies are thick, ultra-chewy (obviously), super soft, and require NO chilling time! Wait, what? Yep, I said it! From mixer to oven to your mouth in 20 minutes flat! Sweet, salty, soft, and soooooo delicious, this cookie will soon become your go-to treat. 
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
0 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Servings:24 cookies

Ingredients

  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup butter, at room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips
  • cup salted cashew pieces

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees and very lightly grease a baking sheet OR line with parchment or a baking mat.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a large bowl cream together butter and sugars.
  • Mix in eggs and vanilla.
  • Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
  • Stir in chocolate chips and cashew pieces.
  • Use a large cookie scoop (I actually use an ice cream scoop) to scoop cookie dough into mounds and arrange at least 2-3 inches apart on your prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes until cookies begin to brown just around the very edges. Allow to cool on the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Repeat with remaining cookie dough. Store in airtight container up to 1 week (though they won't make it that long without being eaten - just sayin').

Notes

Pro Tip: For beautiful cookies, reserve about 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips and place them individually in the tops of the cookie dough mounds just before baking.
