Lavender & Vanilla Lemon Drops image

A delicious, light, experimental recipe I created. These are a good spring or summer cookie. For the lavender-vanilla sugar, I used --Rita--'s awesome recipe. (http://www.recipezaar.com/Lavender-Sugar-With-Vanilla-101039)

Not a fan. The lavender flavor was overpowering and the cookies were too dry.

These lemon drops were absolutely delicious! The lavender and vanilla flavors were subtle but noticeable, and the lemon was perfectly tart. I will definitely be making these cookies again and again.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but the flavor combination was unique and interesting. I would try this recipe again with less sugar.

These cookies were just okay. The flavor was a bit bland and the texture was dry. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a fan of lavender, but I'm so glad I did! The lavender flavor was very mild and it complemented the lemon and vanilla perfectly. These cookies are now one of my favorites!

These lemon drops were a delightful treat! The lavender and vanilla flavors were perfectly balanced, and the lemon added a refreshing tartness. I especially appreciated that the recipe used fresh lavender, which gave the cookies a lovely floral aroma
