Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 75 grams light brown sugar
- 1 unit large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 120 grams white chocolate chips
- 80 grams shelled sunflower seeds (unsalted and toasted)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl. Beat until fully incorporated and smooth.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and toasted sunflower seeds until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded dollops of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown. The centers should remain slightly soft.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
