How to make zesty choco-nut cookies

I always use a little less than the specified measurement and add more if it's not enough. Bake for 15 minutes, after about 12 check on them.

Make sure to take everything out of your oven!

Gather your ingredients

Put all dry ingredients together except for chocolate chips, nuts, cherries, and lemon zest

Use a whisk to mix the dry ingredients if you have clumpy sugar

Mix butter then add in a small handful of chocolate chips

Mix butter+chocolate with eggs

Make sure to wait for the butter, choco egg mix to cool before adding it to dry ingredients

Mix half way, not fully

Add nuts, chips, and cherries. Add as much as you like. I didn't have many cherries or chips :(

Add another 1/4 cup of flour until the cookie dough's consistency pleases you

Almost there, you mix should be brown

Grate your lemon skin

Line and grease your tray

Initially start with 15 but they won't be done for about 30. But make sure to check on them frequently. Also I lowered the temperature from 350 to 300 after 12 minutes.

Separate mix into 12 balls and lemon zest, then into the oven for 30 minutes, check on them regularly, and poke the middle with a tooth pick

Yum yum, enjoy
