Steps:

  • Cream sugar, butter, and lemon zest together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Combine eggs, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a cup; mix using a fork until combined. Beat into egg mixture slowly on low speed.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl. Add to egg mixture slowly on low speed until just combined. Do not overbeat; dough will be sticky. Cover and chill dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes; it will still be sticky after chilling.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Form dough into balls using a cookie scoop or tablespoon and roll each in powdered sugar. Place onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Lightly smash each ball down using your hand.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the middle of each cookie is just barely set, 11 to 12 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack completely before storing in an airtight container.

LEMONY LEMON COOKIES

You can taste the lemon but it's not too sweet and not too sour. This is the original recipe but I have also made this substituting orange and lime for the lemon. I am thinking about trying it with grapefruit next time.

SOFT LEMON COOKIES FROM SCRATCH

These delicious cookies have a kick of lemon flavor, and they're made from scratch rather than a box mix like the majority of recipes out there. This recipe was created because I absolutely love lemon-flavored desserts, but have an allergy to artificial colorants and dyes used in food. Following this recipe as written, you can take comfort in knowing you're not feeding your children any artificial colorings.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Cream sugar and butter in a bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add lemon juice, lemon zest, egg, and vanilla extract; mix on low speed to combine, scraping down the sides of the bowl to incorporate everything evenly.
  • Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. Add to the sugar mixture slowly, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Mix in the remaining 2 tablespoons flour.
  • Place 1/2 cup powdered sugar in a small bowl. Scoop out teaspoonfuls of cookie dough, roll in powdered sugar, and place on the prepared baking sheet, 1 to 2 inches apart.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are light brown on the edges, 9 to 11 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 3 minutes on the cookie sheet. Transfer to a cooling rack and sprinkle with additional powdered sugar.

  • Lemon Crinkle Cookies. View Recipe. Kim's Cooking Now offers these helpful tips: "Just a word of caution, as the amount of lemon juice that 1 lemon will yield will depend on the size of the lemon, and how juicy of a lemon that you are using.
  • Lemon Madeleines. View Recipe. "These were very tasty. Like a lemon sponge cake. I did some using the madeleine pan and the rest in a cake pan since I was short on time.
  • Lemon Sugar Tea Cookies. View Recipe. "A complete novice baker over here and these cookies were delicious! Next time I will make the cookie dough balls smaller since the cookies really spread out while baking but otherwise scrumptious.
  • Lemon Chewy Crisps. View Recipe. Fresh lemon juice and lemon zest give these easy cookies a double dose of citrus flavor. Recipe creator Jennifer Lipka says, "These cookies will have a nicely browned edge if baked on a regular thin cookie sheet rather than a thick or insulated one."
  • Lemon Nut Cookies. View Recipe. Many reviewers used butter instead of margarine and all lemon zest instead of a combination of lemon and orange. Maureen calls them "a melt-in-your-mouth lemony treat!"

  • To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or large mixing bowl and electric mixer) combine the butter, sugars, egg, lemon extract, and beat on medium-high speed until creamed, light, fluffy, and well combined, about 4 minutes.
  • Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, add the lemon zest, honey, optional food coloring, and beat on medium-high speed until well combined, about 2 minutes. I used 1 teaspoon gel food coloring; add drops or gel to desired shade. One teaspoon gel makes the batter quite yellow but it mellows slightly after adding the dry ingredients.
  • Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the flour, cornstarch, optional salt, and baking soda (keep the baking soda in a nice little mound rather than sprinkling it).
  • Add the lemon juice directly on top of the baking soda. It will bubble and foam, which means the baking soda has been activated and this is good; if your soda doesn’t bubble it’s old and expired. Beat on low speed until just combined, about 1 minute.
