High Tea Lemon Cookies image

It's very important to use room temperature butter, not melted or softened. Cookies will become crumbly otherwise. Do not refrigerate this dough, it will become very difficult to work with.

Time 15m

Yield 6 dozen cookies, 30-40 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups butter, room temperature
2/3 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups flour
1 1/2 cups cornstarch
1/3 cup butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/3-1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
4 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • In a large bowl, beat butter until creamy. Add powdered sugar and mix until light and fluffy. Add lemon zest and vanilla extract, beat well.
  • Add flour and cornstarch and mix well until thoroughly combined.
  • Using your hands, roll cookie dough into 1-inch balls. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes, until bottoms are light brown, remove and cool on wire cooling racks.
  • Once cool, spread lemon frosting onto cookies.
  • In a medium bowl combine butter, lemon zest, lemon juice and powdered sugar. Stir until well mixed. Additional lemon juice may be needed to get the frosting thin enough, then dip the cookie into the frosting.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies came out flat and crumbly. They didn't taste very good either.

The cookies were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some extra butter next time.
