Every year my mom and I collect cookie recipes we want to try and then get together in early December for an afternoon of baking. These no-fail lemon cookies have become an annual tradition. They're a wonderful homemade holiday gift. -Kristen Stecklein, Glendale, Wisconsin

- Preheat oven to 300 degrees, with rack in upper third. Sift flour and salt into a bowl; set aside. Put butter into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high speed until fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl. Gradually add sugar; beat until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix in lemon zest and juice.
- Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture all at once; mix until just combined.
- Halve dough, and shape into disks. Wrap each in plastic, and refrigerate 1 hour.
- Working with 1 disk at a time, roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thick. Cut out rounds with a 2-inch fluted cutter. Space 1 inch apart on baking sheets lined with parchment. Refrigerate 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Prepare a cookie sheet by covering it with aluminum foil or parchment paper; set aside.
- Place the softened cream cheese in a mixing bowl and beat on medium-high until smooth and creamy. Add the melted white chocolate and mix on low until smooth.
- Stir in 3/4 cup of the cookie crumbs, lemon curd, lemon zest and food coloring, if using. Cover the mixture with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for an hour, until firm enough to scoop.
- Shape the mixture into 1 inch balls and set the balls on the lined baking sheet. Put the sheet in the freezer to harden the balls for about 20 minutes--don't freeze, just firm enough to hold their shape when dipped. This step will, also, help coating to set.
- While waiting for the truffles to firm up, prepare the candy coating by melting it in the microwave in 30-second intervals. Stir until melted and smooth.
- Once the coating is melted and the truffles are firm, dip each one in the candy coating and place it on the lined baking sheet. If desired, decorate the tops with extra shortbread crumbs, crushed lemonhead candies or slivers of lemon zest while the coating is still wet. Repeat until all truffles are dipped.
- Refrigerate the tray until the coating is set, about 10 minutes. Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Steps:
- Sift flour, confectioners' sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Press softened butter into flour mixture and combine until blended. Pat stiff dough into two 9x13-inch pans forming even layers. Pierce through dough with a fork every 1/2-inch in lines parallel to the long sides of the pans; use a clean yard stick laid across the pan as a guide to make straight rows. Chill dough until firm.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden, about 11 minutes. Cut into rows using fork marks, again using a yardstick as a pan guide. Cut rows into 3-inch lengths to make fingers. Cool completely in the pan.
- Meanwhile, beat eggs in a bowl. Stir in sugar, lemon juice, melted butter, and lemon rind. Pour into the top of a double boiler set over simmering water; cook and stir until thick and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. Cool at room temperature.
- Serve shortbread fingers with lemon curd.

CLASSIC LEMON SHORTBREAD
From the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. These have earned a permanent spot on my Christmas Cookie Tray. I sometimes skip the glaze and just dust with confectioner's sugar when cookies have cooled. Prep time does not include chill time.
