How to make cookies with white chocolate?

Making cookies with white chocolate is simple the key lies in balancing its sweetness. Use quality white chocolate (with cocoa butter, not vegetable oil) and fold chunks into chilled dough just before baking. This ensures creamy, molten pockets inside your cookies. Pair the chocolate with a touch of salt or peppermint, like in these White Chocolate Candy Cane Cookies, for a perfect flavor contrast.

What is Michelle Obama’s favorite cookie?

According to her own words, Michelle Obama’s favorite cookie is a chocolate chip and mint combination inspired by her family’s recipe.

Can I put candy canes in cookies?

Absolutely and you should! Crushed candy canes add both color and texture. Just make sure they’re mixed in gently at the end, so they don’t melt too much into the dough. Lily recommends saving a small handful to sprinkle on top right before baking, giving your cookies a glossy, peppermint-studded finish. This trick also works beautifully for other festive treats like her Cherry Yum Yum , where small toppings make a big visual impact.
