Awesome tips to get the PERFECT Mrs.Fields White Chocolate Chip Cookies:
I like to use 3 special items to help make the perfect cookies. These items not only make the cookies turn out perfectly every time but also help to make my job (as the baker) to be even easier.
1- I use pre-cut parchment paper. This paper comes already sized so I just take a sheet and lay it in my 12×16 cookie sheet with no added hassle. Using parchment paper prevents cookies from overcooking on the bottom and keeps the pan from getting messy.
2- I use my KitchenAid mixer. This does all of the mixing work for me so that I don’t have to strain my wrist muscles using a whisk or electric hand mixer. It’s fast and easy and thanks to the stand mixer my dough is uniformly mixed.
3- I use a cookie scoop. My cookies turn out much nicer looking and more even in size thanks to a cookie scoop. I highly recommend them as they can come in different sizes and be used for multiple things including scooping cupcake batters and more.

Judy says
One of my favorite type of cookies. We used to get them at the mall. I was trying to find a print link so I could print it out but I could not find one. Do you have one? I can use my share button to print it, but it comes up as 25 pages. Thanks for any info. And thank you for the recipe.

Hi Judy, there are two print buttons on the page for these cookies, one at the top of the page under the title and another one about halfway down the page in the recipe card, also under the title. Hopefully that helps. If not, you should be able to use this link to take you to the printing page: https://familycookierecipes.com/wprm_print/5012
