White Chocolate Confetti Cookies - gorgeous, soft and chewy, white chocolate and sprinkles, sugar cookies.
I've had cookies on the brain lately! I've been thinking about baking cookies AND eating cookies!
Unfortunately, cookies are not conducive to my losing my medication weight. Blah.
And yet still...
I've been baking cookies and at least trying them and wishing I could eat all the cookies. #iamtherealcookiemonster
These cookies are a recipe adaptation of Very Vanilla Confetti Cookies from the lovely Christi of Love from the Oven.
Christi's Very Vanilla Confetti Cookies look magnifique and so I HAD to bake them, with my own personal twist of course.
And thus, White Chocolate Confetti Cookies were born.
White Chocolate Confetti Cookies are freakin' delicious! I cannot stress that enough!
I took one bite of these cookies, closed my eyes and savored it, drooled a bit, and then thought there is NO WAY I can eat only one of these. I have to try them all! I need to for scientific blogger reasons. 😉
I am not exaggerating. These cookies are THAT good. They may have even hit "new favorite" status.
In case you haven't noticed, White Chocolate Confetti Cookies are also gorgeous with all their sprinkles and white chocolate chips.
They are also oodles of easy with their simple ingredients and the dough can be refrigerated up to two days ahead of baking time. Yahoo.
I mean seriously, who doesn't like damn delicious cookies with simple ingredients and gorgeous presentation?! If your answer to that question is "me", then I have no words for you. We just can't be friends. 😉

Do you think think these cookies would work well with cookie cutters? I want to make them for my daughter’s birthday party and I would like them to be in fun shapes.
Hi Nikima – I’ve never tried it, but I am going to go with no. The dough is sticky and requires refrigeration, plus it has white chocolate chips in it; it’s not cookie cutter dough. I also suspect it will not keep its shape. Sorry, I don't have a better response for you. Thanks for stopping by and happy baking!
Is the white chocolate pudding necessary? If so what can I use to substitute it.
Hi Monica - the white chocolate pudding is kind of the point of the recipe, so it really should be added. That being said, you could substitute the pudding mix for flour, but I have not tried this so I can't vouch that the cookies will be as good. Thanks!
I used vanilla pudding instead and they turned out amazing! (I didn’t have white chocolate at home) I’ll definitely try the white chocolate pudding though soon since these turned out so good!
Hi Ticia! I agree vanilla pudding is also a delicious addition. Thank you for making and sharing!! 🙂
