Lemon crinkle cookies………for sure the best cookies ever……
I am addicted to bake cookies, as I have said several times…but these ones are something special.
Soft, with a cakey texture ….a texture I haven’t really found in other cookies.
It seems to eat a slice of cake……but you are eating a cooky……unbelievable…..
Do not forget the perfect combination of flavors: lemon and white chocolate….delicious.
Try for your Xmas party: no one will resist.
