Shirley’s White Chocolate Chip Cookies with Moscato d’Asti pairing

White chocolate is delicate and goes well with tangy fruit, so the perfect pairing would be Moscato d’Asti. Moscato d’Asti’s fruity sweetness and the white chocolate’s buttery smoothness pair well due to the bubbles and acidity of the wine cutting through the richness of the chocolate. Drink Moscato d’Asti chilled for optimum experience.

Shirley’s White Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Ingredients:

• White chocolate chips
• Bread flour (bread flour yields a chewier cookie. Use all purpose flour if you’d like a firmer cookie)
• Eggs
• Brown sugar
• Butter
• Salt
• Vanilla extract
• Baking soda

Instructions:

• Use a bowl for dry ingredients, mixing the flour, salt, sugar, baking soda and white chocolate chips and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, eggs and vanilla until fully combined.
• Combine wet and dry ingredients together and stir until batter is formed.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cover your cookie sheet with parchment paper and place drops of dough using a scoop, tablespoon or teaspoon – depending on the desired size of your cookies.
• Bake at 350 for approximately 10-12 minutes, adding or subtracting 2 minutes for smaller and larger cookies.
• Let cool for 5 or so minutes before removing from cookie sheet and placing on plate or cooling rack.
• Once cooled, eat and enjoy with your chilled Moscato d’Asti!
