White Drop Cookies Sour Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

These light and fluffy cake-like cookies are a family heirloom recipe! Made with sour milk for a unique tang and a reduced-fat recipe using shortening instead of butter, these are anything but your average chocolate chip cookie. Expect a lighter, moister texture and flavor than traditional crispy or chewy cookies. We use mini chocolate chips to maintain the delicate balance, but feel free to experiment! This recipe captures the essence of Grandma's baking, even without using naturally soured milk.
