Description

A completely new and fresh twist on a traditional classic cookie.

Ingredients

  • 2-½ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 cup Butter
  • 1-½ cup Sugar
  • 1  Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ½ whole Lemon Zest
  • 2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
  • 3 Tablespoons Heavy Cream (up To 4 Tablespoons)
  • 1 cup White Chocolate Chips
  • Raw Sugar Or Colored Sprinkles, For Sprinkling (optional)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg, vanilla, lemon zest and lemon juice. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients. Add enough of the cream to moisten the dough and make it soft, not wet.

Mix in chocolate chips.

Roll rounded teaspoons of dough into balls and place on a ungreased cookie sheet and slightly flatten the top of each cookie. Sprinkle with raw sugar or colored sprinkles.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until slightly golden. Let stand for 2 minutes before removing to cool on a rack.

Excellent. I followed the other review also and added 1/4 cup more flour. The flavor was perfect and they were nice and chewy.

I followed the other review advice and added another 1/4c flour- the cookies were perfect! Very light and smooth flavor.

The flavor of these is wonderful. I am only giving it 4 stars for now, because it seemed like there wasn’t enough flour in the dough. As a result, the cookies were paper thin. I double checked Tara’s blogsite & sure enough, the recipe there calls for 1/4 c more flour. So, I am going back to add more flour to my leftover dough & I will repost the results.

Really, really delicious. Perfect amount of lemon and white chocolate; tart, sweet, and totally scrumptious. Only rating 4 stars because the cream amount was a little too much–might be a better idea to start with 1-2 tablespoons, then add more if needed. My cookies got VERY flat in the oven–they were a bit too wet.
