LEMON CRISP COOKIES
I received this cookie in a cookie swap this year. These were my favorites of the bunch! I haven't tried these yet, but I think that I will refrigerate the dough and make them into balls. Just to get a more "perfect" looking cookie.

Tips:
- Use fresh lemons. Fresh lemons will give your cookies the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will be less pronounced.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. The cookies should be slightly golden brown around the edges and the tops should be matte, not shiny. If you overbake the cookies, they will be dry and crumbly.
Conclusion:
These crisp lemon tea cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They're easy to make, delicious, and sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try!
