Ingredients
- 2¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips or chunks
- 100 g white chocolate pieces (for filling)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

- Place dough balls on baking tray with space between them.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are lightly golden and centers soft.
