 Double Lemon Delights

Ingredients

• 2 1/4 cups flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup butter softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons grated lemon peel divided
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• Additional sugar
• 1 cup icing sugar
• 4 teaspoons lemon juice

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
2. Combine flour, baking powder and salt in small bowl.  Set aside. Beat butter and granulated sugar in large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, 1 tablespoon lemon peel and vanilla until well blended.  Beat in flour mixture until blended.
3. Drop dough by level 1/4 cupfuls (Pampered Chef Large Scoop) onto ungreased cookie sheets, spacing 3 inches apart.  Flatten dough until 3 inches in diameter with bottom of glass that has been dipped in additional sugar.
4. Bake 12 -14 minutes (I baked 12) or until cookies are just set and edges are golden brown.  Cool on cookie sheets 2 minutes, transfer to wire racks.  Cool completely.
5. Combine icing sugar, lemon juice and remaining tablespoon lemon peel in small bowl, drizzle mixture over cookies.  Let stand until icing is set.
6. Makes about one dozen cookies - I made 14.
