1/4cupwhite chocolate, chopped, 45g
1/3cupbrown sugar70g
1tspimitation or pure vanilla extract
1large egg yolk
¼tspbaking soda
¼tspsalt
½cupplus 2 tablespoons cake flour or a low protein all-purpose flour85g
1/3cupwhite chocolate chipsor more white chocolate, chopped
¼cupsprinkles
Instructions
Set a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water. Into the bowl add the butter, white chocolate and brown sugar. Stir until melted. Alternatively, melt in the microwave or directly in a pot (over low heat).
Remove from heat and whisk until shiny and cohesive. Add the salt and vanilla and stir to combine.
Whisk in the egg yolk, until shiny.
Fold in the cake flour, baking soda, sprinkles and chopped white chocolate. Dough will be very soft.
Chill the dough for 4 hours (or orvernight) in the fridge in an airtight container.
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Dough will be much firmer now. Scoop 1.5-2 tablespoons onto the cookie sheet and leave from for the cookies to spread. If you want more sprinkles on the top, dip the balls in a bowl of sprinkles.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are just beginning to turn golden. Let cool before lifting.
Notes
For the white chocolate I like using a Lindt white chocolate bar - it's good quality chocolate and not overly sweet. You can use more chopped up lindt as chunks to add in (they cookies might spread a bit more but it's fine) or use some white chocolate chips, I like Guittard. The added white chocolate & sprinkles amounts are suggested - use less if you like.
