List of Ingredients




1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
2-1/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons sugar

Topping:
2 cups powdered sugar
3-4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup coarsely chopped shelled pistachios

Recipe



In large bowl, combine butter, 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup powdered sugar; beat well. Add egg, oil and lemon peel; mix well. Add flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt to sugar mixture; beat until well blended. Cover dough with plastic wrap; refrigerate 2 hours for easier handling.

Heat oven to 325 degrees. Shape dough into 1" balls. Place 2" apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten cookies into 2" rounds with bottom of glass dipped in sugar.

Bake at 325 degrees for 9-11 minutes or until edges begin to set and cookies are light golden brown. Cool 2 minutes. Remove from cookie sheets; place on wire racks. Cool 10 minutes or until completely cooled.

Meanwhile, in small bowl, blend 2 cups powdered sugar and enough lemon juice for desired spreading consistency. Spread frosting on cooled cookies.

Makes 5 dozen cookies.
