Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¾ cups (220g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup (50g) light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup (130g) white chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment.
  2. Whisk melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
  3. Beat in egg, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla until combined.
  4. Stir in flour, baking soda, and salt until no dry streaks remain.
  5. Fold in white chocolate chips.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto sheets, bake for 10 to 12 minutes, then cool on a wire rack.

Notes

If you prefer thicker cookies, chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before baking. Use fresh lemons for the zest, as their oils carry the real lemon punch.
