Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 cup vegan butter (room temperature)
  • ¾ cup organic granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup organic light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons non-dairy milk (room temperature)
  • 1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups vegan white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a couple of baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest together in a medium mixing bowl. Set aside.
  • In a separate, large mixing bowl, beat the butter, sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy, about 1 minute.
  • Beat in the milk, lemon juice, lemon extract, and vanilla extract.
  • Begin beating the flour mixture into the butter mixture, adding a bit at a time and beating it in at low speed until a soft dough forms.
  • Fold in the white chocolate chips.
  • Drop the cookie dough by heaping tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 1 inch between them.
  • Bake the cookies until they've spread out and are just barely starting to brown around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the baking sheets to cooling racks and let the cookies cool for a few minutes in order to set before removing them from the baking sheets.
