Ingredients

  • ½ cup Unsalted Butter cold
  • ¼ cup Brown Sugar
  • ¼ cup White Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Eggs
  • 1 tbsp Honey optional for picky eaters
  • ½ cup Cake Flour
  • ¾ cup All-Purpose Flour
  • ¼ cup Cornmeal
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Baking Soda
  • ½ tsp Corn Starch
  • 1 cup White Chocolate Chips
  • For Rolling: ¼ cup Corn Meal + ¼ cup Sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 410F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silpats.
  • In a stand mixer or in a mixing bowl using electric beaters, cream together the white granulated sugar, brown sugar and the butter.
  • Mix in the egg and vanilla.
  • In the mixing bowl add the corn starch, baking soda, salt, cake flour, all-purpose flour and cornmeal to the creamed mixture and mix until the dough has just started to form. The dough will look shaggy, but it is important to not overmix.
  • To the barely combined dough add the white chocolate chips. Mix gently until they are evenly incorporated.
  • Portion dough into small even sized cookies, making sure to leave them rough in shape and not too compact or squished.
  • Evenly roll the cookie dough in the sugar cornmeal mixture
  • Place on prepared baking sheet.
  • Chill for 15 minutes in the refrigerator.
  • Bake for 6-8 minutes. The outside will be set and beginning to brown. The inside will still be soft and gooey, so let rest at least 15 minutes after baking, before removing from the baking sheet.

Notes

Omit the Honey for more of a sugar cookie flavor (in case of picky eaters)
For a crispier cookie add an additional 2-3 minutes.
May be mixed with electric beaters, a stand mixer or by hand with a spatula. Mixing by hand will require a little man power but can be done.
For larger cookies bake around 9-11 minutes.
