Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Pour in vanilla extract and blend until smooth.
  4. Sift together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add this to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in the dark and white chocolate chips along with crushed candy canes.
  6. Scoop the dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about two inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft.
  8. Cool on baking sheets for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Drizzle melted white chocolate and sprinkle with additional crushed candy canes if desired.
