Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 oz white chocolate bar chopped
  • ½ cup white chocolate chips
  • 3 lemons zested

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Add the butter, sugars, and lemon zest to the bowl of a stand mixer. Cream together until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in eggs and vanilla extract until combined.
  • Fold in the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt) until combined.
  • Add the chopped white chocolate and white chocolate chips and mix.
  • Roll 2-3 tablespoons of dough at a time into balls and place them evenly spaced on your prepared cookie sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 8-12 minutes (for me, 10 is perfect). Take them out when they are just BARELY starting to turn brown. They will look light and puffy, and will sink down as they cool.
  • Allow to cool for about 10-15 minutes in the pan, then move to a rack to cool completely.
