These fun cookies are cute as a button {obviously} and they have a subtle lemon flavor that was a hit with just about everyone! They would be the perfect addition to a Pink Lemonade Party or Mad Hatter Tea Party. I need to go make more…
The goods:
1/2 cup icing sugar {powdered sugar}
1/3 cup white sugar
1/3 cup margarine
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 Tbsp lemon juice {fresh squeezed if possible}
1/2 cup icing sugar {powdered sugar}
Preheat the oven to 350°.
Combine and mix the first 9 ingredients until a soft dough is formed.
Roll into 1 inch balls and place on a greased baking sheet.
Press down the center of each ball with your thumb. Then create four little holes in middle {I used the small end of a chopstick}.
Bake at 350° for 10 – 15 minutes.
Toss the warm cookies in the remaining icing sugar.
Drool worthy. Definitely.
This would be a great cookie for all sorts of summer gatherings too. It’s a combo of shortbread and sugar cookie with a hint of lemon.
Enjoy!
