Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups premium flour
- 110 g unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups white chocolate mini-chips (or chop regular chocolate chips with a knife)
- 2 tbsp. green topping
- 300 gr. white chocolate granules
- 1 tbsp. of shortening or vegetable oil
- Green nonpareil, for topping
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 175°C. Spread the flour on a baking sheet and toast in the oven, stirring once, for 10 minutes. Let cool on the sheet; whisk to break up any lumps.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and salt with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the toasted flour, then the lime juice and vanilla. Stir in the mini white chocolate chips and green sprinkles. Refrigerate the dough until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop 1 tablespoon of dough at a time and roll into balls; place them on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate and shortening. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until melted, 1-2 minutes.
- Carefully place a ball of dough into the melted white chocolate and spoon in more chocolate to coat completely. Lift with a fork, let any excess drip back into the bowl, and return the balls to the baking sheet. Sprinkle with nonpareils.
- Repeat with the remaining dough balls. If the melted chocolate hardens, microwave it for 30 seconds. If the dough becomes too soft, refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes.
