Summer Lemon Sugar Cookies image

I call these "summer" cookies because I made them for a June graduation party. They are very refreshing and light. Top with a lemon glaze and you have perfection! I received this recipe in a newsletter from the Old Farmer's Almanac.

Time 50m

Yield 4 dozen, 48 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 3/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, room temperature
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup quick oats

Steps:

  • Sift together flour, baking powder and salt.
  • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar; add eggs, beating well.
  • Beat in lemon rind and juice.
  • Gradually add flour mixture, then stir in oats.
  • Chill dough thoroughly (at least 2 hours).
  • Roll level tablespoonfuls of dough into balls and place onto greased cookie sheets, allowing room for cookies to spread.
  • Using a flat-bottomed glass or custard cup that has been greased and dipped into sugar, flatten each ball to a 1/4 inch thickness (dip the glass into sugar each time).
  • Bake at 375 degrees F until lightly browned around the edges, about 8 - 10 minutes.
  • Cool on cookie sheet for 1 minute, then carefully move to wire rack.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. They were very easy to make and they turned out perfectly. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe if you don't like your cookies too sweet.

These cookies were a bit dry for my taste, but the lemon flavor was nice. I would recommend adding a little bit of butter or oil to the recipe to make them more moist.
