Ingredients
  

  • 115 g melted butter
  • 210 g flour
  • a pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 170 g regular white sugar
  • 20 g vanilla sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla syrup
  • 1 egg
  • 200 g chopped white chocolate

Coating

  • 200 g melted white chocolate
  • crushed peppermint candies

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 150°C. Prepare two baking sheets and baking papers.
  • In a bowl whip melted butter with sugar. You can do it with a mixer or use an egg whisker (like me). Whisk until creamy.
  • Add vanilla syrup and an egg. Whisk again until combined. In another bowl whisk flour, baking soda, a pinch of salt, and baking powder. Add into the mixture and mix with a spatula until the mixture is thick like cookie dough. If it's not thick enough, add more flour.
  • Chop up the white chocolate and add it to the cookie dough. Fold in with a spatula.
  • This cookie dough doesn't need to go to the freezer before baking. Scoop up a ⅓ tablespoon of cookie dough and put it on the baking sheet. I don't recommend putting more than 3 cookies on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. Get them out of the oven and leave them on the baking sheet for another 10 minutes to bake. Cookies should be slightly underbaked. Let them cool completely.

Coating

  • Melt white chocolate in a microwave or in a bowl over boiling water. Chop up peppermint candy. Pour white chocolate over the cookie and sprinkle with crushed peppermint candy pieces.
