Instructions:
Prepare the Dough:
In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and powdered sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest. Mix until combined.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Chill the Dough:
Divide the dough into two portions and shape each into a log about 1.5 inches in diameter. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours, or until firm.
Slice and Bake:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Remove the dough from the fridge and slice into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch of space between them.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just lightly golden. Do not overbake.
Cool the Cookies:
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the Lemon Glaze (Optional):
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more sugar or juice as needed.
Glaze the Cookies:
Drizzle or spread the glaze over the cooled cookies. Let the glaze set for about 20-30 minutes before serving.
Serve and Enjoy:
These cookies are perfect with a cup of tea or coffee and make a lovely gift!
