# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The combination of juicy peaches and creamy white chocolate feels like eating summer sunshine in cookie form
  • These cookies stay perfectly soft and chewy for days thanks to the sour cream secret ingredient
02 -
  • Patting diced peaches completely dry with paper towels is absolutely crucial or your cookies will turn out cakey and dense
  • These may look slightly underdone when you pull them out, but they continue cooking on the hot baking sheet
03 -
  • Chill your dough for 30 minutes before baking if you want thicker cookies with better flavor development
  • Rotate your baking sheets halfway through baking time for perfectly even golden cookies
