Time 1h46m

Yield 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1 egg
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 cup poppy seed filling
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, beat margarine or butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in lemon peel and egg. Stir in flour, baking soda and cloves, mixing well.
  • Roll dough, between two pieces of waxed paper, into a 1/4-inch thick, 12"x10" rectangle. Refrigerate 30 minutes or until firm.
  • Heat oven to 350ºF. Grease a large cookie sheet. Remove waxed paper from one side of cookie dough. Spread poppy seed filling on dough to within 1/4-inch of the edges. Roll up dough tightly, beginning with long (12") side, peeling off waxed paper as dough is rolled. Pinch edge of dough to seal well. Cut dough into 1/2-inch slices. Place on cookie sheet about 1-inch apart.
  • Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are light brown. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

The cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

These cookies were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

The cookies turned out great! They were crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. The poppy seed filling was also very flavorful.
