Recipe:
Lemon Cookies
1 cup softened butter
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/4 cup lemon juice (I juice a real lemon then top it off with bottled stuff!)
2 Tbsp grated lemon rind
2 tsp vanilla
5 cups President's Choice Gluten Free Flour
4 tsp baking powder (mix with flour)
Salt Lemon Drizzle
1 1/2 cup icing sugar
2 Tbsp water
1 Tbsp lemon juice
Cream butter, eggs, sugar, milk, lemon rind, add half the flour, lemon juice and vanilla, and then rest of the flour. Cover and refridgerate for at least a half hour.
Divide dough, roll and cut in desired shape.
Bake at 350* for 12 minutes.
Cool and use lemon drizzle or decorate as desired.
This is a favourite recipe for several reasons. It’s easy, it makes lots, they’re smooth for decorating, and they’re delicious. A nice light lemon flavour. I make mine Gluten Free but regular wheat flour can easily be used. I got the recipe from a client years ago, she had been making them at Christmas time for years. Her daughter was married and had moved away but she still got a box in the mail every year from her mom. They freeze well
