Lemonia Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Dissolve the ammonia in the milk, and set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream together the lard and sugar until smooth. Mix in the lemon oil, eggs, and salt. Stir in the milk alternately with the flour to form a soft but manageable dough. Roll the dough into walnut sized balls. Place 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten the cookies using the bottom of a glass dipped in sugar.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until firm. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse together the nuts, flour, cornmeal, and salt until finely ground and smooth.
• Using a hand-held or stand mixer, beat together the butter and 1/2 cup powdered sugar in a medium bowl until light and creamy. Add the lemon juice, 1 teaspoon zest, and vanilla and beat to combine. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients in 3 batches until just combined; be careful not to over-mix. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• In a shallow bowl, combine the remaining sugar with remaining zest. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Roll the dough into 1 1/2-inch balls. Transfer the dough onto cookie sheets and bake until firm and very pale golden, about 12 to 15 minutes.
• While the cookies are still warm, roll each cookie in the sugar mixture. To achieve a solid coating, roll each of the cookies a second time in the sugar mixture.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine the flour and salt in a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Put the butter, granulated sugar, confectioners' sugar and lemon zest in a large bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg yolk and vanilla and beat until well combined. Add the flour mixture in 2 batches and mix until just combined.
• Scoop the dough with a 2-ounce cookie scoop, filling it fully with the dough. Then shape it into a straight-sided patty (like a hockey puck) that is 2 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick. Put the formed cookie on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat to make 7 to 8 more cookies and making sure there is at least 1 inch of space around each cookie on the baking sheet.
• Bake until the cookies have spread out and flattened by about half and the bottoms are lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the pan once halfway through the cooking time. Let cool 10 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
• Flip your cookies upside down so the flattest side is up. Use the yellow icing to make a thin line around the edge of each cookie. Then make 2 loops around the interior of the yellow border with the white icing and use a toothpick to fill in any gaps between the two colors. Fill in the middle space with the yellow icing and then make a circle with the white directly in the center. Immediately use a scribe or toothpick to lightly drag from the edge of the cookie to the middle to create the segments of your lemon. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
• Let the icing dry and crust over or serve immediately.

Steps:

• MIX ALL INGREDIENTS INTO A DRY CRUMB MIXTURE PRESS AND FORM INTO BALLS IN YOUR HAND PLACE ON COOKIE SHEET BAKE 300 DEGREES 20 MIN. (THE VANILLA SUGAR CAN BE FOUND IN THE ETHNIC AISLE OF LARGER STORES THE BAKERS AMMONIA IS AVAILABLE BY ASKING YOUR PHARMACIST)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla, and lemon juice and beat until combined. With mixer on low, beat in flour mixture.
• Drop dough by heaping tablespoons, 1 inch apart, onto two baking sheets. Bake until edges are golden, 15 to 20 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cool 2 minutes on sheets, then transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Spread cookies with Lemon Glaze and let set, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Grease cookie sheet lightly.
• Cream Shortening and Sugar, add Cream, Milk and Peppermint Extract.
• Sift Flour and Baking Amonia together; add gradually to mixture.
• Roll out dough on a well floured surface about 1/2" thick max. and cut outwith a 1 1/2 - 2" cookie cutter.
• Bake at 350 F for 10 - 15 minute.

Steps:

• Cream butter, sugar,salt, lemon oil and eggs well.
• Add ammonia powder to warmed cream.
• Then add the flour with milk mixture alternately with the creamed mixture.
• Make sure you have a nice soft non sticky dough,that will be nice for rolling out, but not too firm. Sometimes I do have to add a bit more flour. But if adding too much flour will make a dry cookie, and get stale faster.
• Chill covered dough.
• Roll on floured board about 1/2 inch thick.
• Cut with round cookie 2 inch cutter.
• Place on parchment lined sheet, or greased baking sheet.
• Well apart as they rise and spread into big cookies.
