List of Ingredients




1-cup sugar
2 cups butter room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ tablespoon lemon rind grated
2 eggs
6 cups cake flour


Recipe



Cream together sugar and butter in an electric mixer. When fluffy, add vanilla and lemon rind. Blend well. Add eggs, one at a time; mix well. Remove from mixer. Add cake flour; blend with a heavy mixing spoon. Chill dough in refrigerator 1 hour or overnight. Roll dough to 1/8" thickness and cut out with cookie cutters.
