What You’ll Need To Make Churro Cookies

- all-purpose flour
- baking soda
- kosher salt
- white chocolate chips
- ground cinnamon
How To Make White Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Place butter into a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook and swirl butter in pan to melt butter. Continue to swirl pan while butter bubbles and cooks. Watch carefully as butter browns. When butter is brown, carefully pour into a heat proof bowl, scraping brown bits from pan too. Let butter cool for 30 minutes or you can place in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 330 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place brown butter into a large mixing bowl. Stir in brown sugar and granulated, stirring until well combined. Add eggs and vanilla stirring until well combined. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt. Stir until dough forms then add white chocolate chips stirring until combined.
- Place sugar and cinnamon into a shallow bowl, stir to combine.
- Scoop cookie dough with a medium size cookie scoop and gently roll into cinnamon/sugar mixture. I don’t roll dough into balls before cinnamon/sugar, just regular cookie scoop shape. Place onto baking sheet 1 inch apart and bake for 10-11 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 15 minutes before transferring to a serving plate.

Once wet ingredients are combined, slowly add dry ingredients.
Add white chocolate chips, stir to combine.
Scoop dough and roll into cinnamon sugar. I didn’t end up rolling my dough into balls, just scooped into normal scoops with uneven tops.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until baked through. Look at that gorgeous texture. They’re fantastic.
The cinnamon/sugar on the outside is the perfect churro touch. You’ll absolutely love these!

Jenny! These are fantastic!!
These are the BEST cookies and easy to make! Always a hit!
Great recipe – I added 3/4 cup of chopped toasted pecans as I was short of white chocolate chips. 20 gram balls rolled in sugar and cinnamon – baked for 12 minute @ 330 degrees. Froze the dough a few days before unthawing and baking. Excellent! Yield – about 40 cookies
