Lemon Cookies

I’ve been craving lemon desserts lately, and these cookies are one of my favourites! Ready in just half an hour, and disappear equally fast 😀

Ingredient

1/4 cups

small egg (or half of a big egg)

1 tsp

lemon juice (freshly squeezed)

pinch

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Preheat oven to 350F/180C. Cover the baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

* Step 2

In a large bowl, cream butter (1/4 cup) and sugar (1/2 cup) together until light and fluffy. Whip in vanilla (1/2 tsp), 1 small egg (or whisk a big egg and add half), 1 tsp lemon zest and 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice. Scrape sides and mix again.

* Step 3

Stir in 3/4 cups flour, a pinch of salt, and 1/4 tsp baking powder slowly until just combined. Scrape sides of the bowl and mix again briefly.

* Step 4

Pour powdered sugar onto a large plate. Roll a teaspoon of dough into a ball and roll in powdered sugar. Place on the baking sheet and repeat with remaining dough.

* Step 5

Bake for 9-11 minutes or until bottoms begin to barely brown and cookies look matte (not melty or shiny). Remove from oven and cool cookies about 3 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
