Day 112: Lemon Cookies

Original Source: Savoring the Spice



Guest blogger Laura Barone returns today with a goody she cooked up for her wee ones. Enjoy!

Laura:

These are called the Best Lemon Cookies, and I have to admit I was a little skeptical. You see, I’m not fond of lemon or powdered sugar—two ingredients in these cookies. Despite that, I am a sucker for a good lemon cookie so figured since I had all the stuff in the house—minus the lemon—I would give them a shot.


Oh, man, am I glad I did! These are simple to pull together.


The batter is a little thick, which is perfect since you roll them in powder sugar before baking. These do not spread out a lot so go for the full tablespoon ball and not the half-size ones I made.

As they bake, they get all crinkly and smell divine!

Wish you had smell-o-screen ‘cause I’m telling you, even if you have a love/hate relationship with lemon, you will LOVE these cookies. They have a hint of tartness from the lemon but the powdered sugar adds the right amount of sweetness to make you say hmmm-hmmm-hmmm, can I have another, please.

Will definitely be making these again.

  1. They look like a lemon version of the chocolate crinkle cookies I've been making forever! I HAVE to try these!
