I clipped this from a Reader's Digest about 3 years ago. It was in an advertisement for Land O Lakes butter. These cookies live up to their name. Lemony and buttery and oh so tender, they almost do melt in your mouth! Prep time includes chill time.

[email protected]These cookies were a bit of a disappointment. The lemon flavor was too subtle and the texture was a bit dry. I think I would have liked them better if I had used more lemon zest and juice.
