Equipment

  • large baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • Stand Mixer fitted with paddle attachment
  • Oven
  • Refrigerator

Ingredients

Instructions

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer add the softened butter, and both sugars. Cream until fluffy, and combined.
  • Add the lemon pudding mix, eggs, vanilla extract, and continue to beat until combined.
  • In a small bowl whisk the flour and baking soda together. On low speed, slowly add the mixture to the batter. Combine until dough is thick.
  • Fold in the white chocolate chips. Once they are mixed into the dough, remove the dough, form it into a ball, and place it in plastic wrap. Chill the dough for one hour minimally, or longer for best results.
  • Once dough feels firm, preheat the oven to 350°F. Use a 2 tablespoon-size cookie scooper, scoop out the dough balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet (2 inches apart as they do not spread) and bake for 10 minutes. The bottom edges will be slightly golden brown and the cookies will firm up as they cool. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack and repeat until all cookies have been baked.
