What You’ll Need To Make Churro Cookies

You’ll need some basic pantry ingredients to make white chocolate chip cookies. See my recipe card at the bottom of the post for full instructions.

• Salted Butter– For most of my recipes I use salted butter. Unsalted works too.
• Brown Sugar– This cookie recipe uses dark brown sugar that is located right by the light brown sugar.
• Granulated Sugar– This fine white sugar adds sweetness to the cookie.
• Large Eggs– For consistency, I use large eggs in my cooking and baking.
• Pure Vanilla Extract– For best tasting results, use pure vanilla.
• All-Purpose Flour– Flour is the main dry ingredient in the cookies.
• Baking Soda– Baking soda helps the cookies rise during baking.
• Kosher Salt– Kosher salt is a course salt commonly used in cooking and baking. I prefer it over table salt.
• White Chocolate Chips– Find white chocolate chips near the other chocolate chips in the baking isle of the grocery store.
• Ground Cinnamon– Cinnamon adds the perfect churro spice to the cookies.

How To Make White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Brown The Butter. 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. For full instructions on how to brown butter, see my post How To Brown Butter. It takes you step by step with photos.

Preheat oven to 330 degrees F. 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.

Add Dry Ingredients. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt. Stir until dough forms.

Add White Chips. Add white chocolate chips stirring until combined.

Prepare Cinnamon Sugar. Place sugar and cinnamon into a shallow bowl, stir to combine.

Place Cookie Dough Onto Cookie Sheet. 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.

Bake for 10-11 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 15 minutes before transferring to a serving plate. The cinnamon/sugar on the outside is the perfect churro touch. You’ll absolutely love these!

Recipe Tips For Success

• Be sure to cream butter and sugars for a good 1-2 minutes for best results
• Don’t skip the cinnamon sugar topping. It adds the perfect flavor combination with the white chips.
• Let cookies cool for 15 minutes on cookie sheet before removing. They’ll continue to cook slightly on the hot cookie sheet.
• When you take the cookies out of the oven, if there are any cookies misshaped, take a plastic knife and shape cookies as needed while they are still hot. I do this with all of my cookies, to make them more round if needed.

How To Serve Cookies

Serve at any occasion where cookies are needed. They’re great for Holidays and celebrations of any kind. I love packaging these cookies in cellophane bags with a bow to give as neighbor gifts.

How To Store Leftovers

Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Freezing Instructions

Freeze cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 months in the freezer. Thaw completely before eating.
