Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet and set aside.
In a medium bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar together until the mixture becomes light and airy (with a KitchenAid, about 2 minutes. with a manual whisk, about 5 minutes). Add in the egg and vanilla.
In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Next, add the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, stirring until just combined. Gently fold in the white chocolate chips, being careful not to overmix the dough.
Scoop roughly 1 1/2 inch spheres of dough onto a cookie sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space in between each ball of dough. Bake for 10-12 minutes, being sure to keep an eye on the consistency of the baking cookies. Let cool on a rack for 10 minutes before serving.
Devour.

Tricia on 2015-02-05 (5 stars): Hi! Just tried out this recipe. Turned out great!
Would just like to know... How long is the shelf life for these cookies? I wanted to bake a large batch so I can have some ready - to - eat snacks for the hungry kiddos. Thanks! :)
Jane on 2016-03-07 (1 stars): Just made these cookies but they completely flattened in the oven. I followed the recipe exactly, especially making sure to do so after reading a previous comment, but they didn't turn out. I'm guessing the recipe needs more flour. My flat discs are yummy, but definitely not presentable at the meeting I was planning to take them to. Disappointed.
Lisa on 2016-12-18 (4 stars): I really enjoyed these. I doubled it, using half butter and half Smart Balance. I used just over 1 teaspoon salt and thought it was too much. Glad I did not double it. I scooped the batter into my hands to roll into balls before baking. They did not spread out far at all. Perfectly round cookie
Trish Pines on 2017-03-01 (5 stars): I made these on Sunday. What a great recipe and so delicious! Adding some mini chips next time to enhance the chocolate experience!
Madeline Bialek on 2018-01-22 (5 stars): I loved these! I doubled the recipe and got perfectly round cookies. Thank you! Will be using this recipe in the future.
ashley on 2019-10-06 (5 stars): Dear Sarah and Sofi,
Oh my gosh. These cookies are amazing!! I made them for my roommates and they were gone in five seconds! And you are right, the dough is irresistible. Perfect texture, perfect taste. 10/10!! Thank you for this recipe!
Elle on 2020-02-25 (5 stars): Tried this recipe before and didn’t turn out great. Made them again today turned out perfect!! I let butter out at room temp which I think which is why they were better. Also levelling off dry ingredients.
Thank you!
Venetta on 2020-09-02 (5 stars): these cookies were amazing...
Hannah on 2020-10-10 (5 stars): Made these last week and I regret baking only 16 cookies! These cookies were amazing! Crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. I put 1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks in the batter and 1/2 cup white chocolate chips on top of the cookies before baking- sooo much more chocolate-y. What I love about this the most was that you don’t have to refrigerate the cookie dough before baking! Thanks for this!
Maria on 2021-01-17 (5 stars): These turned out really well - so yummy! I doubled the batch and did half white chocolate chips and half regular chocolate chunks. Only thing was the batter was quite runny, so I added probably 3/4 extra cup of flour. They turned out perfectly.
