Lemon Cookies With Lovely Lemon Glaze Recipes

GLAZED LEMON COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla, and lemon juice and beat until combined. With mixer on low, beat in flour mixture.
• Drop dough by heaping tablespoons, 1 inch apart, onto two baking sheets. Bake until edges are golden, 15 to 20 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cool 2 minutes on sheets, then transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Spread cookies with Lemon Glaze and let set, about 1 hour.

LEMON COOKIES WITH GLAZE

Steps:

• Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
• Cream sugar and butter together with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing until incorporated. Reduce speed to low and beat in sour cream and lemon zest. Add flour mixture and mix until combined.
• Refrigerate dough until slightly firm, about 1 hour.
• Adjust oven racks to upper-middle and lower-middle positions and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing cookies 2 inches apart.
• Bake until just golden around the edges, about 15 minutes, switching and rotating sheets halfway through baking time (one sheet of cookies took about 12 minutes, the other sheet ended up taking 16 minutes). Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool, 8 to 10 minutes more.
• While cookies cool, mix powdered sugar, lemon juice, milk, and lemon zest for glaze together and lightly drizzle cookies when they are almost completely cooled.

SOFT LEMON COOKIES WITH GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Use a spoon to make a well in the center of the mixture. Pour oil, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in the well. Mix and knead until a dough forms.
• Roll into balls and flatten with the heel of your hand or anything with a flat surface. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 8 minutes for a softer cookie, 10 to 12 minutes for a crispier cookie. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool, 8 to 10 minutes more.
• While cookies cool, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice and glaze cookies however you like.
