Ingredients
Scale
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon red food coloring
1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, and red food coloring to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the white chocolate chips.
Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a more intense pink color, add more food coloring as desired.
Store cookies in an airtight container for up to a week.
These cookies can be decorated with sprinkles for an extra festive touch.
