COOKBOOK

rosemary, almond, & white chocolate chip cookies

June 11, 2014

Jump to Recipe

Rosemary, almond, & white chocolate cookies.

A couple of weeks ago, Bowl #2 and I made a little move to a new place just across the street, scooting into our friends’ apartment after they moved uptown for grad school.  Adjusting to this apartment so far has been, for lack of a better simile, like taming a giddy, unrestrained crush. So much light! So many shelves! So clean! So new! CLOSETS! POT AND PAN RACK! For the most part, the last week has consisted largely of Bowl #2 and I looking at each other, firmly ensconced in our old squishy couch on our old chevron rug in our new living room, saying over and over, “I love this apartment. Don’t you love this apartment?”

Of course, being a New York apartment, it’s not without its faults.  So far, mainly just a minor (and fixable) one — a stubborn oven that releases gas but refuses to light.  (And has since caused the gas company shut off the gas to our apartment altogether.  Me: “But … are you sure I can’t just use the stove?  You know?  Just the stove?”  Them:  “Yes, unless you want to risk gas building up in the oven and blasting the whole thing apart.”  Me:  “So … no?”)  But, like with most giddy crushes, we’ve readily rationalized its shortcomings — no working stove or oven means an excuse for delivery pizza, right?  And green smoothies for lunch, and contemplating crazy shenanigans involving hot water kettles and instant ramen.

Rosemary, almond, & white chocolate cookies.

Rosemary, almond, & white chocolate cookies.

What really amazes me about our new home, though, is how much and how recently we were unsure about whether to make the move.  Even though we knew exactly what we were getting ourselves into — it being our friends’ apartment, after all — there was something scary about shaking up the status quo.  Just the thought of uprooting ourselves from the familiar was enough, I think, to wash our old imperfect apartment in nostalgia and make it harder to leave.  (Plus the thought of packing.)  So part of what I’m loving so much about our new digs is the gladness that we mustered up the courage to make a change, and the welcome reminder that change can be good, exciting, and necessary.

Given our dormant oven, today’s recipe is for a batch of cookies I made awhile back in our old place.  Speaking of change, they’re the perfect example of how old things give way to new wonders — they’re a riff on the very first cookie I ever made from scratch, the now-infamous Jacques Torres New York Times 36-hour chocolate chip cookie.  I had almonds and white chocolate burning a hole in my pantry, so I swapped out the regular chocolate chips for them; then, on a whim, I topped it off with rosemary brown butter.  That brown butter. Its earthy warmth helps ground an otherwise intense white chocolate, resulting in a deeply rich, savory-sweet cookie with even more of that nuanced, addictive caramel note so well-sung in the original.  And, as in the original, the extended wait time results in a perfectly textured cookie with a crisp edge and a chewy, buttery center — but with a tad extra crunch from the almonds to round it all off. I think this would make a perfect Christmas cookie (or an anytime cookie, since I made them in April).

To our dear friends and former neighbors, if you read this — thanks for the sweet digs.  The only thing wrong with it is that you guys aren’t here anymore.  (Well, I guess that and the oven.)  And also thanks for the popsicles in the freezer.  They are bomb.  P.S.  I haven’t killed your oregano and thyme yet.

Rosemary, almond, & white chocolate cookies.

Print Recipe

based on a half-batch of Jacques Torres’ infamous chocolate chip cookie recipe; makes about 12-18 cookies.

Ingredients

Scale
  • for the rosemary browned butter:
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 3–4 small sprigs rosemary
  • for the rest:
  • 1 cup cake flour
  • 3/4 cup bread flour
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp coarse salt, such as kosher
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/8 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1/4 tsp almond extract
  • 1 cup (about 6 oz) white chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup sliced almonds, plus more for pressing on top

Instructions

  1. Melt 4 tbsp of butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Once melted, add rosemary, and continue to stir until butter bubbles and crackles, then turns a rich medium brown. For a stronger brown butter flavor, let the butter go darker (even burned). Set aside and let cool.
  2. Sift together cake flour, bread flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the brown sugar and remaining 6 tbsp of softened butter until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, then set a fine mesh strainer over the bowl and pour the browned butter through, straining out the rosemary sprigs. Discard sprigs, then beat again vigorously until mixture becomes light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Finally, add the egg, almond extract, and vanilla extract, and beat again until incorporated.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix gently just until incorporated. Finally, fold in the white chocolate and almonds.
  5. Chill the dough for at least 4 hours and ideally up to 36 hours.
  6. When you’re ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Roll the dough into balls of about two tablespoons each, and place on a parchment- or Silpat-lined baking sheet about 3 inches apart. If you like, press a few more almonds on top. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until edges are set and centers are still soft. Cookies will continue to set once they’ve been removed from the oven.

    The Jacques Torres NY Times cookie is one of the first things I baked from scratch too and my husband still asks about them – haha. I try to tell him that it is good to try different things but they are so so good. These sound like a delicious new combination! Congrats on the new digs 🙂

    So glad your new place feels like home already! And can you imagine how awesome it will feel when the whole apartment is filled with wonderful aromas of baked goods? I think it will make you fall in love with your new home even more deeply than you already have. And I truly can’t wait to see how you capture that new light…exciting!
    These cookies look fabulous! I’ve heard of Jacques Torres’ famous 36-hour cookies but haven’t yet managed to bake a batch of them. Thanks for the reminder!

      This direct light is a whole different beast! I’ve gotten so used to knowing which times I need to aim for that I’m all confused xD Plus now I’m trying to grow some herbs on the windowsills (that our friends bequeathed to us). Times are strange and changing. Hehe. Hope you try his cookies, Sini! They’re truly amazing. And thank you as always for your sweet words 🙂

This is awesome!) and second of all, I AM SO EXCITED TO SEE WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO BE DOING WITH ALL THIS NEW LIGHT. (!!!!!!) Can't. Wait. Ugh I'm so sad your stove is broken!!! I hope it gets fixed soon, but I also love that you and Bowl #2 are being so positive about it (delivery pizza YES!). Because pizza is amazing. And so are you. Yay for new moves! <3

    Wonderful!! I love that you added the rosemary in these — so so tempting! I don’t have any white chocolate in the house, ahk. Moving house is such a monumental task, an uprooting — I’m so glad you made the change and that you’re so happy with everything! Congratulations, and once your oven comes back to life I can’t wait to follow along with more of your delicious treats 🙂

    Did the gas company guy make ‘THAT FACE’ when you asked “But … are you sure I can’t just use the stove? You know? … I can picture this in my head even though I was’t there 🙂

    I can’t wait to see your photos with all the wonderful light. Wait until the oven got fixed!!! OMG, it’s going to be awesome 🙂 Would you give us ‘a tour’ of your new place once you are done decorating?

    glad you two are settling in and enjoying it all!

    I love using herbs in my desserts, especially rosemary. It adds such a savoury, fresh, bright flavour. These cookies are gorgeous, girl, and hallelujah for more natural light! I sadly moved from an apartment with floor to ceiling windows facing west to a house surrounded by giant trees, facing north ‘n south (meaning we get no direct sunlight inside). Boo. The only good thing about all this shade is that our house is nice ‘n cool, whereas the apartment felt like a freaking oven in the summer. Speaking of ovens, I hope yours gets fixed asap. I can’t imagine living without it!

      Oh my god, I feel you so hard on this direct light business! We just did the exact opposite, funnily enough — the new place has the giant west-facing windows and the old place was north and south. We used to marvel at how naturally cool our place was even when it was almost 100 out! You win some, you lose some. 🙂 Thanks so much, Nance! Hope you’re doing amazingly <3

    Sometimes, we think about moving. We think about buying a new house surrounded with trees instead of neighbours. Then we think about the packing… But now that I know there are cookies and light and the end of the tunnel? I’m thinking we should hit some open houses this weekend.

    {Also, there have been huge crews of dirty men digging up the sewer lines two doors up. Apparently the infrastructure here is 60 years old, so the pipes are all… exploding. I refuse to bake with poop in our basement.}

    So I made these cookies and they’re absolutely AMAZING!! But I don’t quite get why they have to sit so long—does it have to do with the flavor or the dough?

      Ahhh, I’m so glad you liked them!!!! That makes my day! 🙂 It’s an interesting question as to why they need to sit — I’ve seen discussions that say that the wait time allows the moisture from the wet ingredients to fully disperse through the cookie, others that speculate that it gives time for gluten development or firms up the cookie, still others that say it allows a greater depth and marriage of all the flavors … All of which is probably true to some extent 🙂 At the same time, I’ve also seen other discussions that say it doesn’t matter and may actually make the cookie greasier. I think giving it at least a little rest — an hour, maybe — is best, but maybe not mandatory if you’re in a hurry 🙂
