Enjoy the delectable combination of buttery soft cookies with a refreshing lemon flavor burst. These lemon soft baked cookies are ideal for any occasion!
Ingredients: 1 cup butter, softened. 1 cup granulated sugar. 2 eggs. 2 teaspoons lemon zest. 1 tablespoon lemon juice. 3 cups all-purpose flour. 1 teaspoon baking soda. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup powdered sugar for rolling.
Instructions: Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on a baking sheet. Melt the butter and mix it with the sugar in a large bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy. After adding the lemon zest and juice, beat in the eggs one at a time. Mix the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt together in a different bowl. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix them together until they are just combined. The cookie dough will be easier to work with after being chilled in the fridge for about 30 minutes. Take dough balls about the size of a tablespoon and roll them into balls. Cover all of the dough balls with powdered sugar by rolling them in it. Spread the dough balls out on the baking sheet that has been prepared, leaving some space between them so that they can spread. After the oven is hot, bake the pies for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops have a few cracks. After taking the cookies out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool all the way down.
