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.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a food processor work bowl, add sugar and lemon zest. Process until sugar and zest are well mixed, about 20 seconds. Scrape into a large mixing bowl. Reserve about 1/2 cup of lemon sugar in a separate bowl for later use.
- Add flour, baking powder and salt into food processor and pulse briefly to mix. Add cold butter into food processor with flour mixture and process with short pulses until mixture resembles cornmeal and no large lumps of butter remain, about 10 pulses. Pour this mixture into the sugar and lemon mixture in the large mixing bowl and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix egg yolks, vanilla extract and lemon juice together.
- Using an electric mixer with a paddle attachment, pour in the lemon/sugar and flour/butter mixture and stir until combined, about 15 seconds. Then, while the mixer is still running, slowly add egg/lemon juice mixture and mix until well combined and dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl, about 15 to 30 seconds.
- Scrape the dough into a large bowl and refrigerate until cold, but not solid, about 30 minutes. Use an ice cream scoop to scoop the dough onto parchment-lined cookie sheets. Take the dough balls and roll the tops into the reserved lemon sugar. Use the bottom of a water glass to press the cookies flat, about 1/4-inch thick. Bake the cookies until slightly browned, about 15 minutes. Remove the parchment paper with the cookies from the tray to a cooling rack and cool completely, about 1 hour. Once the cookies have completely cooled, ice with Lemon Icing.
- 1 pound (2 cups) confectioners' sugar
- 6 tablespoons lemon juice
- In a medium bowl, whisk sugar and lemon juice together until smooth. Spoon onto cooled cookies, and spread evenly with the back of a spoon. Let stand on a cooling rack until the glaze is set, about 1 hour.
- Yield: enough for 3 dozen cookies

ZESTY LEMON ICE CREAM COOKIE SANDWICHES
A double dose of lemon makes these frosty ice cream sandwiches irresistible. The cookies have lemon zest, lemon juice and lemon extract, and before they're sandwiched with vanilla ice cream, they're smeared with tangy lemon curd.

Steps:
- Spoon the ice cream into a rimmed baking sheet and spread to 1/2-inch thickness. Freeze until firm, 2 to 3 hours. Use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut the ice cream into 12 rounds, reshaping the ice cream "sheet" as needed. Keep frozen.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Stir together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cornstarch and salt in a large bowl; set aside.
- Beat the butter and granulated sugar with an electric mixer at high speed until creamy. Add the egg, and beat until the yellow disappears. Beat in the lemon zest, juice and extract.
- Add the flour mixture in 2 batches and beat until combined. Roll the dough into twenty-four 2-inch balls. Roll the balls in coarse sugar, if using, and place on the prepared pans. Use the bottom of a glass to press down the dough balls.
- Bake until the cookies are set and lightly golden on the bottoms, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
- To assemble the sandwiches, spread 1 to 2 tablespoons lemon curd on the flat sides of 12 cookies. Sandwich an ice cream round between 2 cookies (one lemon curd-coated and one uncoated). Roll the edges in the sprinkles. Wrap and freeze the ice cream sandwiches until ready to serve.
