Ingredients 

  • 90 g unsalted butter (6 ⅓ tbsp.)
  • 50 g granulated sugar (¼ c.)
  • 100 g light brown sugar (½ c.)
  • 1 egg
  • ½ tsp. vanilla
  • 160 g all purpose flour (1 ⅓ c.)
  • ½ tsp. baking powder
  • ½ tsp. baking soda
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 60 g white chocolate (⅓ c.) + extra for topping
  • 1 tsp. butterfly pea powder
  • 2 tbsp. freeze-dried raspberry powder*

Instructions 

  • In a medium sized mixing bowl, melt the butter in 20 second intervals until it's just melted.
  • Whisk in the granulated and brown sugar, followed by the egg and vanilla.
  • Add in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix the ingredients together *just* until the last streak of flour disseapears.
  • Divide the dough into thirds into three separate bowls. (about 150g each)
  • From this point, you'll want to only mix until the dough is fully cohesive to avoid over-mixing the dough.
  • To one bowl, mix in the butterfly pea powder. To another, mix in the freeze-dried raspberry powder. To the last bowl, mix in the white chocolate.
  • Use a 1 tbsp. cookie scoop to dish out each flavor of the dough.
  • Take one of the raspberry dough and flatten it in your hand, then flatten a white chocolate dough on top of it, followed by the butterfly pea powder dough. Roll the flattened dough into a ball.
  • Repeat until you have used all of the dough. If you want to make the dough a little more uniform, you can press it into a 3 tbsp. cookie scoop and release it.
  • Chill the dough in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Place the dough balls evenly spaced apart to allow room for spreading, and top them with more white chocolate if desired.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the middle has almost completely set.
  • Immediately after taking the cookies out of the oven, you can take a bowl that is slightly larger than the cookies and swirl it around over the cookies to make them a little more uniform and circular. Serve and enjoy!
