1 lemon

2 ¾ cup all purpose flour

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp kosher salt

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tbsp milk
Instructions
1. Cream the butter and sugar together until light yellow using a hand mixer or a stand mixer in a large bowl. This will take a few minutes. 2. Measure in the eggs, vanilla extract, lemon extract and lemon zest. Mix until incorporated and fragrant. 3. Next, blend the flour, baking power and salt with the wet ingredients. 4. Once incorporated, measure the lemon juice and milk into the batter and stir, until just combined. 5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and chill in refrigerator for at least an hour. 6. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat. Set aside. 7. Scoop the cookies into 1-tablespoon dough balls with a cookie scoop. 8. Use your hands to round out the cookie dough, then roll in powdered sugar until coated. 9. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. 10. Bake for 15 minutes (or until cookies are set) in the preheated oven. 11. Cool on a wire cooling rack and then enjoy!View original recipe
