Lemon Cooler Cookies
- 1/8 teaspoons UNsweetened Powdered Lemonade Drink Mix
- 1/2 cups White Chocolate Chips
- 1/2 cups Butter
- 3/4 cups Powdered Sugar (Split Into 1/4 Cup And 1/2 Cup Portions.)
- 1/4 teaspoons Vanilla
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup All-purpose Flour
- 1 whole Lemon (You Need The Zest From All Of It Plus The Juice From Half Of It.)
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Add drink mix powder to the white chocolate and melt in a double boiler. Whisk to integrate and keep heating until it's fully melted.
- Spread the melted chocolate out over a Silpat or parchment-lined sheet pan until 1/8 inch thick and pop in the freezer 15 minutes to harden. Once frozen, peel from your Silpat and run a knife thru the white chocolate to dice it into pieces about the same size as minced onion.
- With hand or stand mixer on medium, beat butter and 1/4 cup powdered sugar, for 2 minutes, scraping bowl as necessary. Add vanilla and salt and mix 30 seconds more to integrate. Slow things down to a stir, add flour, zest and lemon juice. When it comes together, stir in the chopped white chocolate.
- Roll cookies into 3/4 inch balls (about a measured teaspoon of dough) and space evenly on a Silpat or parchment-lined sheet pan. Bake in your preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, or until the bottom edges just begin to brown. When done, let rest 5-7 minutes on the pan before removing to wire rack to cool completely.
- When completely cool, coat the cookies in the remaining 1/2 cup of powdered sugar.
