Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 1 Large egg
- 3 tablespoons Key lime juice
- 1.5 teaspoons Key lime zest
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Cornflakes, lightly crushed
- 0.75 cup White chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the egg, key lime juice, and key lime zest to the mixture. Blend until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until a dough forms.
Fold in the crushed cornflakes and white chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy the tangy, crunchy, delectable Cornflake Key Lime Cookies!
