Little Drops of Spring - Eggless, Lemon, White Chocolate Chip Cookies



I wish I could say that I’ve gone on a good-for-you, low cholesterol diet that restricts my egg consumption, but yeah, no.  I was out of eggs and craving a citrusy sweet treat, so I threw together these lemonade-like cookies!
  
Hope you enjoy!

Little Drops of Spring – Eggless, Lemon, White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients
  • 1 cup of unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 3 cups of flour
  • 1 tsp. cream of tartar
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/4 cup of lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup of milk
  • zest of two small lemons
  • 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.  Cream the butter and sugar until its nice and fluffy.  Add in 1 cup of the flour, cream of tartar, and baking soda before adding lemon juice.  Add remaining flour and zest before slowly adding in the milk.  Finally mix in the white chocolate chips.  Drop by tablespoonful onto ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes.

****Update**** Since a couple of you asked I highlighted when to add the milk.  You alternate with the dry ingredients and the lemon juice and milk.  :)

  3. ooh this looks delish. I love the idea of a light lemoney cookie for spring. I assume the milk is added in once the butter has been mixed? Thanks for sharing! :)
