Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature

  • 1 tablespoon loose Earl Grey tea or 2 tea bags, torn open
  • Zest of 1 medium orange or lemon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup caramelized white chocolate chips

Instructions

  2. Cream together butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Stir in the citrus zest and Earl Grey tea until just combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients.
  5. Fold in the caramelized white chocolate chips gently.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space to spread.

  8. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  9. Enjoy your warm cookies!

Notes

For added flavor, consider incorporating hints of lavender or a sprinkle of sea salt. Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes for better texture.
