Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 6 ounces (170 grams) white chocolate chips
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Flavor Enhancers:
- 2 limes, zest
- 2 limes, juice
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the oven at 375F (190C) to ensure optimal baking conditions.
- Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl, creating a uniform dry mixture.
- Using an electric mixer, blend butter, sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture becomes airy and pale.
- Incorporate egg, lime juice, and vanilla extract, mixing until the batter achieves a smooth, consistent texture.
- Slowly integrate the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
- Gently fold lime zest and white chocolate chips into the dough, distributing evenly throughout.
- Scoop rounded portions of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet, maintaining their natural rounded shape.
- Bake for 8-9 minutes, watching for golden-brown edges while ensuring the center remains soft.
- Allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for a brief moment to set, then transfer to a wire rack for complete cooling.
Notes
- Grate lime zest finely to ensure even distribution of bright, citrusy flavor throughout the cookies.
- Use high-quality white chocolate chips for a richer, creamier texture and more indulgent taste.
- Remove cookies from the oven when edges are just turning golden to maintain a soft, chewy center.
- Store cookies in an airtight container with a slice of bread to keep them moist and fresh for several days.
