in a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, extracts, sugar, butter and oil
once incorporated, fold in the flour, baking powder and white chocolate chips
cover the mixing bowl and put in the fridge for about 30 minutes. this will leave the dough chilled and firm
line a baking sheet with parchment paper
take about 2-tablespoon-size mounds of dough and spread out evenly on the parchment paper (each cookie should be about 2 inches apart)

allow to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a cooling rack
