White Chocolate-Butterscotch Cookies

• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
• 3/4 cup vegetable shortening, room temperature
• 1 1/4 cups packed dark-brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
• 8 ounces best-quality white chocolate, chopped into 1/4-inch pieces

1. Preheat the oven to 350F, with racks in the upper and lower thirds.
2. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
4. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, shortening, and brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
5. Beat in the egg and the vanilla until combined.
6. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture in two batches, beating until just combined.
7. Stir in the white chocolate.
8. Drop 2 tablespoons of dough at a time about 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets.
9. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until lightly golden brown around the edges, about 15 minutes.
10. Let cookies cool on sheets for 2 minutes, then transfer parchment and cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Cookies can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
