Ingredients

1 1/2 cup Butter or margarine, softened
1 cup Granulated sugar
3/4 cup Packed light brown sugar
2 tsp Vanilla extract
2 large Eggs
2 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
2/3 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp Baking soda
1/2 tsp Salt
1 pkg Large white chocolate chips (12 oz)

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 350F (175C).
2
Lightly grease cookie sheets or line them with parchment paper.
3
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, and eggs until the mixture is light and fluffy.
4
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
5
Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the creamed butter mixture until just combined and smooth.
6
Stir in the white chocolate chips, chopped pecans, and golden raisins.
7
Scoop out about 1/3 cup of dough for each cookie.
8
Place dough balls on prepared cookie sheets, spacing them about 4 inches apart to allow for spreading.
9
Flatten each cookie slightly with the palm of your hand or the bottom of a glass.
10
Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the centers are firm and the edges are set.
11
Cool on the cookie sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Note

Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze baked cookies for up to 3 months.

Ingredient Note: Ensure butter is softened to room temperature for proper creaming. If using salted butter, you may reduce the added salt by 1/4 teaspoon.

Variation: For a nut-free version, omit the pecans and add an extra 1/4 cup of white chocolate chips.

Tip: Do not overbake; the cookies will continue to firm up as they cool. If you prefer a softer cookie, remove them from the oven when the centers still look slightly underdone.
