    Stir together well.

  7. Step 7

    Drop tablespoon-sized rounds on cookie sheets and bake for 15 minutes, or until edges just start to turn golden.

Tips & Warnings
  • White chocolate is not technically real chocolate, because it doesn't contain any cocoa solids. White chocolate is a mixture of cocoa butter, dairy solids, vanilla and sugar. Unfortunately, many white chocolates on the market don't contain any cocoa butter; for this recipe, use only those that do.

on 2/25/2009 These cookies were served in the break room of a trucking company. The cookies disappeared and there was nary a crumb left. Must have been good, eh? ;) This recipe is a good alternative to "traditional" chocolate chip cookies.
