Lemon-Almond & White Chocolate Cookies

Lemons may be my favorite thing!  I love anything that has them in it, I even like to eat them plain.  So a lemon cookie is right up my ally and these don’t dissapoint.  You can leave out the white chocolate for a more tart cookie.  I hope you enjoy these as much as my husband did (you can see a few bite marks in my pictures).
