Italian Lemon Cookies Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

• 3 1/4 cup all purpose flour
• 4 eggs
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 1/4 cup icing sugar
• 1 cup oil

  neutral
• 1 lemon

  zest
• 3 Tbsp icing sugar
• 1/2 lemon

  juice

Instructions

• 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• 2 Add all of the ingredients for the cookie in a medium sized bowl, make sure to
  add the flour one cup at a time. The texture should be a soft cookie dough
  texture. When you make a ball with it there are no cracks, but it is not too wet
  that it sticks to your hands. Mix well with a wooden spoon or spatula.
• 3 Spoon about a teaspoon of cookie dough onto hands and make 1 1/2 inch balls,
  place on a parchment lined pan. Put it in the oven for 12-14 minutes, remove as
  soon as it is cooked, you are not looking for any golden brown color on the
  cookie, that will be overcooked and dry. If you are not sure then
  check under one cookie after 12 minutes and if it has a teeny tiny hint of
  golden color than it is ready.
• 4 Wait until the cookies have cooled completely. Mix the icing sugar and lemon
  juice in a bowl, you want a thick liquid glaze. Dip the cookies in the glaze and
  place on parchment paper. You can make these cookies in advance and freeze them,
  just don't put the glaze on them.
