Instructions

Here’s how to make Citrus, Earl Grey, and Caramelized White Chocolate Sugar Cookies effortlessly:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture, beating until fully combined.
  4. Stir in the citrus zests of orange and lemon for that refreshing flavor boost.
  5. Mix the crushed Earl Grey tea leaves into the batter until evenly distributed.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined and no streaks of flour remain.
  8. Gently fold in the chopped caramelized white chocolate until evenly dispersed in the dough.
  9. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes for better texture.
  10. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each.
  11. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
  12. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

By following these simple steps, you’ll ensure that your cookies come out perfectly every time!
