Baker's Notes
We usually find beet sugar at Safeway. It is sold under their Signature Select brand. We feel that it is quite a bit lighter and smoother than cane sugar, which works really well in this recipe.
Instructions
- Cream butter and sugar until light.
- Add eggs and vanilla.
- Add the sifted dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
- Add white chocolate chips and chopped nuts. Mix again until combined.
- Scoop the dough into 1.2 oz (34g) balls. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Cover with a parchment sheet. Chill for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Remove the dough balls from the refrigerator. Place 8 cookies, 4 inches apart on baking sheets.
- Bake for 9-10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
