Lemon Chippers

 

I got some candy for Valentine's Day that had

chocolate covered lemon cream candy. I had never

considered that combination, but it was really good.

I thought it would be a good combination for cookies.

Here's the recipe I came up with. These cookies had a

nice golden color on the bottom after 13 minutes, but

the tops were kind of pale. THey tasted fine and were

a bit crunchy. This recipe made about 5 dozen.

 

3/4 cup butter (1 1/2 sticks), softened

1 cup sugar

1 teaspoons lemon extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

 

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

 

Cream butter with sugar in a large mixing bowl until

light and fluffy. Blend in eggs and lemon extract.

Set aside. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a

small bowl. Gradually mix into butter mixture. Stir

in chocolate chips. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto an

ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.

Cool on baking hseet for a few minutes, then remove

and place on a wire rack to cool completely.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I grew up in S. California and was raised having See's

Candy at holidays and they had lemon creams with chocolate. I will say up-front

that I don't really care for sweets that are chocolate and fruit together but I

loved the lemon creams with chocolate.

Usually, dessert recipes aren't the same when I make them vegan but this one

looks like is could work out well. Ooooooooooh gotta try it! THANX!

I love citrus + chocolate. I recently bought some

lemon ginger chocolate chip cookies that might have

been the best cookie I've ever tasted.

They also have an orange chocolate chip cookie.

Newman's also makes an orange chocolate chip flavor.
