Easy Lemon & White Chocolate Cookie Recipe

I have posted a lot of lemon recipes on here so far, but I have no regrets about that. Lemon is fantastic. It smells delightful, it tastes good, it looks pretty, its amazing! A couple friends of mine who live on the east coast are a little upset with me for not making all these lemon treats when I lived near them. I am a kind friend though and so I am providing the recipe so they can make them on their own! This is a perfect summer cookie. Perfect for BBQ’s, family gatherings, or just a sweet treat on a warm day. Go ahead, make these and thank me in the comment box below!
