Lemon Sugar Tea Cookies

"These are great cookies and so easy to bake. They not only taste great with a great texture, but they also look perfect because they bake into perfect circles. If you make them, hide them or they will be gone in a flash. I normally have to double the recipe. A great change from oatmeals and chocolate chips cookies. Credit to Allrecipes.com."

directions

  • In a medium bowl, cream together butter and 1 cup sugar and lemon zest if use until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in egg, corn syrup, and lemon extract.
  • Stir in flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
  • Cover dough, and chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour. (Very important).
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll chilled dough into walnut sized balls. Roll balls in remaining sugar, and place on the prepared cookie sheet.
  • Bake 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned. (Time depends on your oven. My girlfriend's oven only requires 10 minutes.).
  • Note: You can choose to skip rolling the cookies into the sugar. Instead, you can dust the cooled cookies into powder sugar.
  • Note: I have also rolled them in decorator 's sugar in variety of colors and they were very pretty.
