Sea Salt, Lavender, and White Chocolate Chip Cookies

In a bowl combine flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt; set aside.

In a food processor, process the sugar and lavender for a few seconds until the lavender is chopped into tiny pieces and sugar starts to “smoke” out of the processor. This step perfumes the sugar and ensures that the lavender will be evenly distributed within the cookie!

In an electric mixer, beat together the butter, shortening and lavender sugar on medium for 3 minutes. Add in the egg and egg white and beat for 3 more minutes until fluffy. Add in the flour mixture slowly and white chocolate until combined.

Using a cookie scoop, generously scoop oversized balls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, then preheat oven to 375ºF. While the oven is preheating, place sheets of dough in the freezer to let them firm up. Once the oven is ready, bake cookies for 12 minutes.

The cookies should look slightly underdone when you take them out. Immediately sprinkle with sea salt and extra lavender if you want! Allow to cool then indulge in one of the best cookies you will ever make.
