The preparation method for this recipe is very simple and I'm sure that if you follow it step by step you will be able to make your recipe, it will be wonderful.
PREPARATION METHOD
- First, preheat the oven to 180°C and line a baking sheet with baking paper. Set aside.
- Then, in a medium bowl, combine the 2 cups of flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Set this dry mixture aside.
- Then, in another large bowl, add 1/2 cup of softened butter and 1/2 cup of sugar. Use a mixer or wooden spoon to beat until the mixture is light and creamy.
- Then add 1 egg to the wet mixture and continue beating until completely incorporated. Then add the juice and zest of the 2 lemons and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture. Use a wooden spoon to stir until the cookie dough forms. Make sure you don't overmix; just until the ingredients are combined.
- With your hands, form small balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure you leave enough space between the cookies, as they will spread during baking.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned on the edges.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Finally, you now have delicious lemon cookies ready to enjoy! Serve with an iced tea or store in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
