Time 1h

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 cup white sugar
½ cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons fresh lemon zest
2 eggs
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup powdered sugar

Steps:

Cream sugar, butter, and lemon zest together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Combine eggs, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a cup; mix using a fork until combined. Beat into egg mixture slowly on low speed.
Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl. Add to egg mixture slowly on low speed until just combined. Do not overbeat; dough will be sticky. Cover and chill dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes; it will still be sticky after chilling.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Form dough into balls using a cookie scoop or tablespoon and roll each in powdered sugar. Place onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Lightly smash each ball down using your hand.
Bake in the preheated oven until the middle of each cookie is just barely set, 11 to 12 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack completely before storing in an airtight container.

Lemon Crinkle Cookies. View Recipe. Kim's Cooking Now offers these helpful tips: "Just a word of caution, as the amount of lemon juice that 1 lemon will yield will depend on the size of the lemon, and how juicy of a lemon that you are using.
Lemon Madeleines. View Recipe. "These were very tasty. Like a lemon sponge cake. I did some using the madeleine pan and the rest in a cake pan since I was short on time.
Lemon Sugar Tea Cookies. View Recipe. "A complete novice baker over here and these cookies were delicious! Next time I will make the cookie dough balls smaller since the cookies really spread out while baking but otherwise scrumptious.
Lemon Chewy Crisps. View Recipe. Fresh lemon juice and lemon zest give these easy cookies a double dose of citrus flavor. Recipe creator Jennifer Lipka says, "These cookies will have a nicely browned edge if baked on a regular thin cookie sheet rather than a thick or insulated one."
Lemon Nut Cookies. View Recipe. Many reviewers used butter instead of margarine and all lemon zest instead of a combination of lemon and orange. Maureen calls them "a melt-in-your-mouth lemony treat!"

Whiz the lemon zest and sugars in a food processor. This step is optional but it really infuses the sugars with lots of lemon oil and makes a big difference. If you don't have a processor just mince the zest, mix with the sugar and set aside.
Beat butter and infused sugars in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Mix in the egg, lemon juice and 1tbsp lemon paste or 1 tsp lemon extract. Scrape the bowl down and mix once more. If you're adding some food coloring this is a good moment to mix it in!
Add the dry mixture to the wet and beat until almost combined. Scrape the bowl down one last time then beat until combined.
