Lemon Double Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

These lemon double chocolate chip cookies have a nice flavor to them thanks to the lemon. Pour in the dark chocolate and white chocolate chips and they’re a cookie made in heaven. They’re sweet, but not overly-sweet, moist, and chewy. The recipe will make approximately 20-24 cookies depending on size.

You can easily freeze these cookies once they’re fully cool. Just place them in a freezer container or freezer storage bag. They will keep for up to 3 months.

Lemon Double Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 tsp. lemon extract
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
non-stick baking spray

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, large egg, and lemon extract. In another bowl sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the flour mixture into the butter mixture using an electric mixer until all ingredients are combined.

Stir in the dark chocolate chips and the white chocolate chips by hand. Don’t use an electric mixture until they’re distributed throughout the cookie batter.

Drop by tablespoon onto the prepared baking sheet leaving 2″ of space between each cookie. Place baking sheet in a 350 degree F. preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and let cookies cool on a wire rack. Once cool store them in an airtight container.

    I have never tried to add lemon to chocolate chip cookies. Now that you have shown me this recipe it is something I shall try soon.

  2. Lemon does go well with chocolate. Good that these freeze well so I won’t be tempted to eat them all at once.

  3. These have 2 of my favorite flavors – lemon and chocolate. What a delicious combination for a cookie. I like baking cookies that freeze well like these.

    These sound so good. I like lemon cookies… how could I not like these? I will be making them soon. Thank you for the recipe.

  5. I’ve never tried lemon chocolate chip cookies before. I will have to give this a try!
    I have lemon rind in my anisette biscotti and they taste good with mini chocolate chips.
