Buttery, chewy cookies with bright lemon flavour and creamy white chocolate. Easy to make and absolutely delicious.

Notes
**I make these all the time without the citric acid and they are delicious. If you're looking for your lemon cookies to have lots of lemon flavour AND be tangy, this is the answer.
