Ingredients

• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ⅓ cup white sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• ½ cup white chocolate chips
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
• 2 tablespoons culinary-grade lavender
• 1 teaspoon imitation vanilla flavoring

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Whisk flour, chocolate chips, sugar, lavender, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a large glass mixing bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender until the texture resembles coarse cornmeal with some small chunks of butter in the mix.

Step 3

Whisk cream, vanilla extract, and vanilla flavoring together in a small bowl. Add to the mixing bowl and use a spatula to blend into the flour mixture. Knead dough until completely combined.

Step 4

Cut dough in half and form each piece into a disc. Place discs on the prepared baking sheet and cut each one into 8 wedges.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
