Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cloves
Wet Ingredients
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Mix-ins
- 1 cup white chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chips) Use dark chocolate if preferred.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, and cloves.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until combined.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Baking
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about two inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers remain soft.
- Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading. Store in an airtight container. Experiment with nuts or dried fruits for added texture.
