White chocolate cookies
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
Place the butter and sugar into a bowl and beat on medium until pale and fluffy, approximately 3 minutes with an electric mixer.
Add the egg and continue to beat until well combined, beating for a further minute.
Toss in the flour and baking powder and combine until no dry portions remain in your bowl.
Place 100 grams / 3.5 ounces of the white chocolate into a small bowl and melt and allow to cool.
Pour into your cookie dough and stir until fully combined.
Spoon 50 grams / 2 tablespoons of the raspberry jam into the dough and stir just enough to create a slight swirl.
Scoop up a portion of dough and place onto your baking tray with 1 ½ inches between each cookie.
Press the center with a tablespoon to make a well and spoon a portion of the raspberry jam therein.
Bake for 12 minutes or until golden at the edges.
Allow to sit on your baking tray for 3 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Press remaining white chocolate chunks into the cookies, if you prefer.
Serve with a glass of milk.
Enjoy!
Notes
Raspberries: Fresh were used here, though you could absolutely use frozen or even use raspberry jam, however, if using jam, these will likely be much sweeter.
Chocolate: 27% cocoa white chocolate block was used here because it is a higher quality than baking chocolate and controls the level of sweetness in the cookies better. The higher the cocoa content the creamier our white chocolate which results in a smooth profile once baked versus a floury end texture.
Ice Cream Scoop: The scoop used here creates large cookies with a diameter of 6 centimeters / 2.36 inches.
