When life gives you lemons...the Dutch add white chocolate and turn them into cookies! 🍋 🍪 These zesty lemon cookies from the Netherlands take inspiration from classic American chocolate chip cookies, swapping in creamy white chocolate and a citrusy twist. Fun fact: the Dutch were chocolate powerhouses in the 1800s—and white chocolate was invented to use up leftover cocoa butter from making cocoa powder. And lemons? They’re more than just a flavor—they’re a muse! In the 17th century, over half of Dutch still life paintings featured lemons. 🎨 Talk about citrus supremacy. So go ahead—grab a cookie, crack open your watercolor set, and get inspired. What flavor combo do you think belongs in a cookie?
