Lemon Melts
I was goofing off in the kitchen and created this cookie – they are WONDERFUL!
Ingredients
2 1/4 cups sifted flour
1 tablespoon lemon flavoring
2 tablespoons lemon zest
1 stick (1/2 cup) COLD butter, cut up
6 tablespoons powdered sugar
Extra powdered sugar to coat cookies
Iced water, (or lemon juice) spooned by teaspoonful until the ingredients hold together (from 2 to 4 teaspoons)
Powdered sugar
Preheat oven to 275F. Mix flour, lemon flavoring, zest, butter, and 6 tablespoons powdered sugar. Add iced water one teaspoonful at a time until the ingredients hold together in a stiff dough.
Roll out into balls; bake 20 minutes or until very light brown on ungreased cookie sheet. Roll in powdered sugar when cooled and store in an airtight container.
