  • 1/8 tsp salt

  • Sprinkle the flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt over the bowl. Fold gently with a spatula just until combined, don’t over mix.
    6 tbsp all-purpose flour, 1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/4 tsp cornstarch, 1/8 tsp baking soda, 1/8 tsp salt
  • Fold in most of the white chocolate chunks, saving a few for the top.
    1/4 cup white chocolate chunks
  • Form the dough into a thick ball, place on a parchment-lined plate or tray, and bake for 13 minutes until the edges look set, center look slightly underbaked and glossy.
  • Press more white chocolate chunks into the top while still warm for a more bakery style cookie look if you'd like.
  • Optional but elite: sprinkle a tiny pinch of flaky salt. Let cool on the pan for 10–15 minutes.

Notes

This cookie is pretty large and can be shared between 2-3 people. No judgement if you have the whole thing though, I have done that so many times .
