Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
  • 1 egg
  • 2 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/4 cup coarse white sparkling sugar

Instruction

  • In large bowl, beat butter and granulated sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add lemon peel and egg; beat until well blended. On low speed, gradually beat in flour and salt until well blended.
  • Heat oven to 350°F. On floured surface, roll dough 1/8 inch thick. Cut with lightly floured 2 1/2- to 3-inch snowflake-shaped cookie cutter. On ungreased cookie sheets, place 2 inches apart.
  • Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until cookies just begin to brown. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 10 minutes.
  • In small bowl, mix powdered sugar, lemon juice and water. Using small metal spatula, spread glaze on tops of cookies; sprinkle with sparkling sugar. When glaze is dry, store in airtight container.
