  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar for coating

Instructions:

Mix butter and sugar together in a bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy

Combine well by mixing

Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a different bowl

Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients one at a time until a dough forms

Make a disc out of each half of the dough

Cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge for at least an hour

Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on a baking sheet

Spread out one disc of dough on a floured surface until it's about 1/4 inch thick

Cut out the shapes you want with cookie cutters and put them on the baking sheet that has been prepared

After the oven is hot, bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden

After taking the cookies out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool all the way down

The second disc of dough should be rolled out, cut, and baked again

After the cookies have cooled all the way down, sprinkle powdered sugar on top of half of them

On the other half of the cookies, put your favorite jam or lemon curd

To make sandwich cookies, press the cookies with sugar on top and the cookies with jam on top together

Serve and have fun!
