    Combine all ingredients except flour and lemon glaze; with mixer, beat until well blended. Beat in flour. Divide dough in half; wrap in plastic wrap and chill at least 1 hour.

Bake in preheated 375 degrees F oven for 7-10 minutes or until lightly browned around edges. Cool. Repeat with dough scraps and remaining dough. Decorate with lemon glaze. Store tightly covered.
