1 cup butter
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon salt


Recipe



Preheat oven to 400 F. In a medium bowl, beat together butter and confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the lemon peel, flour and salt until well combined. Beat in as much flour as you can. Stir in any remaining flour with a wooden spoon. Do not chill dough. Pack dough into a cookie press. Force dough through press onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 5 to 8 minutes or until light brown. Allow to cool on baking sheets for 1 minute and then remove to wire rack to cool.

1 egg, beaten
2/3 cup white sugar
1½ teaspoons lemon zest
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1½ tablespoons butter

Combine the beaten egg, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and butter in the top of a double boiler. Stir until thick. Drizzle over cookies.
