Ingredients
  • 1 cup butter, unsalted
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tsp. lemon extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • Topping:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Line to baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
  3. In a bowl, add butter and salt; beat until light and creamy. Add powdered sugar and lemon extract; beat until combined. Add flour and beat in well.
  4. Take a teaspoon size about of cookie batter and place 1" apart on baking sheet (I fit 16 cookies to each cookie sheet).
  5. Bake in oven for 10 - 12 minutes, until bottom starts to turn a very light golden color. Let cookies rest on baking sheet for 3 minutes.
  6. While cookies are warm, roll cookies in 1 cup of sifted powdered sugar. Let cookies cool completely.
  7. Store in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze cookies for up to 3 months.
Notes
Calories maybe less, I had left over powdered sugar when rolling.
