  • 1 ½ cups flour (all purpose )
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup sugar (powdered)

Instruction

  • In a large bowl, stir together the granulated sugar, oil, and eggs. Use a box grater to zest as much of the lemon peel as you can, and then reserve 2 tablespoons of lemon juice (or as much as you can). Stir the zest and juice into the bowl.
  • Then, stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt until a dough ball forms. Cover and chill for at least one hour or overnight.
