Glazed Lemon Cookies

Ingredients

lemon cookies

  • 2 cups all purpose flour (or 250g, *spooned & leveled*)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 cup butter (unsalted)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (~ 1/2 a lemon)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

lemon glaze

  • 2 cups powdered sugar (240 g)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice

Directions

lemon cookies
1 Pre-heat oven to 350 F. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt and lemon zest.
2 In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla and lemon juice and mix until well combined. Stir in dry ingredients.
3 Roll into 1 tbsp sized balls. Bake on parchment or silicone-lined baking sheets until edges of cookies *just* begin to turn brown, around 13-14 minutes. Cookies may look under-baked but they will firm up. Allow to cool on cookie sheet for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack.
lemon glaze
4 Once cookies are completely cooled, combine powdered sugar and lemon zest in a small bowl. Add lemon juice gradually until you have achieved the consistency you would like for the glaze. Spoon over cookies.
