For the Cookies:
Mix flour, salt, and baking powder in a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat butter in bowl until light. Gradually beat in sugar. Beat in egg, then poppy seeds,lemon peel, and extracts. Mix in dry ingredients in 3 additions. Gather dough into ball. Divide dough into half; flatten each half into disk. Wrap in plastic; chill 2 hours.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Butter 2 large baking sheets. Roll out 1 dough disk on floured surface to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut out cookies with cookie cutter. Arrange cookies 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets. Gather scraps; reroll and cut out more cookies. Chill cookies on baking sheets 15 minutes.

Bake cookies until edges just begin to color, about 18 minutes. Cool cookies on sheets 3 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks; cool completely. Repeat rolling, cutting, and baking with remaining cookies.

For the Filling:
Beat all ingredients in a bowl, until large and fluffy. Spread 2 teaspoons of filling over bottom of 1 cookie. Press second cookie, bottom side down onto filling. Repeat with remaining cookies and filling. (can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill).
