  1. What a great cookie! A great recipe to help use up leftover homemade lemon curd! The cookie dough is not too sweet so it does not distract from the lemon curd filling. I added a TBSP of curd to the dough while mixing for a fresh lemon scent & flavor in the cookie itself.. a perfect cookie.
     
  2. This is an awful recipe. Not sure why the 1T of powdered sugar is listed twice.It's also really hard to stir 1 2/3 C flour into a tiny mixture of powdered sugar and butter. It flaked up and didn't turn into dough at all. I refrigerated it (covered of course), and it was pure crumbs. I had to add some egg beaters to it to make it piece together instead of falling apart when I tried to make a ball.

I am married and a father of 2. I love to hunt, fish, trap, hike, rock climb, camp, garden and cook. By trade I am a welder, but I also make knives and am a semi-professional blacksmith. My family and I live on a self-sustainable homestead. We raise a big garden of heirloom vegetables. I collect antique varieties of apple, pear, plum, quince, cherry, mulberry and grapes. We raise meat rabbits, chickens for meat and eggs and we raise 2 breeds of pigs. I make my own beer, cider, perry and wine. I also have a medicinal garden from which I make a lot of herbal remedies. I use organic, self sufficient practices with everything I raise to eat and plan on teaching this to my kids as they grow up.
