Preheat the oven to 360°F.

In a large bowl, add 2.25 cups of all-purpose flour.

Add 3/4 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to the flour and whisk together.

In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add 1 cup of room temperature unsalted butter.

Cream the butter until light and fluffy.

Add 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 cup of brown sugar, mixing until combined.

Scrape down the bowl and mix until light and fluffy.

Add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 2 large eggs, mixing until incorporated.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low until almost combined, leaving some flour visible.

Fold in 2 cups of white chocolate chips, reserving a handful for later.

Scoop the cookie dough onto a baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, removing them at 8 minutes to add reserved white chocolate chips on top.

If desired, use a round cookie cutter to shape the cookies right after they come out of the oven.
