White Chocolate Chunk Cookies

My husband Fred loves white chocolate. He is forever trying to sneak bars of lindt into our shopping and loves a good white chocolate biscuit or cookie. Instead of buying some expensive cookies that included white chocolate I told him id make him some. My sister and her boyfriend Ant were coming round for tea that night, so I made a good size batch and completely winged it in terms of the recipe. Im pretty sure they liked them though as they all went in a day, and I didn't get a single one.
