White Chocolate Biggies

For Christmas 2019 my Mom gave me a cookbook, specifically 'the chocolate cookbook' and that is where this recipe comes from. These are excellent cookies, hands down! Highly recommended.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups butter, softened, (1 1/2 blocks / 3 sticks)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 package white chocolate chips, (312-340 g / 11-12 oz)
  • 3/4 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1/2 cup golden raisins, or sun-dried raisins
  • milk, as needed, just a tablespoon or two

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 180 C / 350 F, line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly greased foil.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt, whisk together.
  • In another mixing bowl, add the butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer until well mixed.
  • Add the flour mixture and use a sturdy spoon to mix together until well mixed. The dough will be very stiff, if too stiff, mix in 1 tablespoon of milk at a time, but keep the dough stiff.
  • Stir in the chips, pecans, and raisins.
  • Drop by very heaping tablespoons, 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Flatten dough slightly.
  • Bake for 12-14 minutes or until firm in the center. Cool on the sheets for 5 minutes then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Serve and enjoy.
