    Chocolate Drizzled Lemon Cookies


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
    1 cup Butter or Margarine -- softened
    1 Egg
    2 teaspoons Lemon Peel -- grated
    1 teaspoon Lemon Extract
    1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
    2 1/2 cups Flour
    1 teaspoon Baking Powder
    1/4 teaspoon Salt -- (optional)
    Glaze:
    12 ounces Chocolate -- your choice
    1 1/2 tablespoons Butter or Margarine -- melted

    Recipe



    In a large mixing bowl, cream the powdered sugar and butter until fluffy. Beat in egg, lemon peel, and extracts. In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Roll dough (with well floured hands) into a 1 1/2 inch wide log. Wrap the log in plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 to 60 minutes.

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and slice the dough into 1/4 inch thick slices. Place the slices one inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 9 - 11 minutes, and cool for one minute on cookie sheet before removing to cooling racks. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler over hot, but not
    boiling water. Stir until chocolate is smooth, then add melted butter, and continue stirring until well blended. Line cookie sheets with waxed paper and coat lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Lay cookies on lined sheets, about 1/2 to 1 inch apart, and drizzle melted chocolate mixture onto cookies
    in lines or swirls, leaving most of cookie exposed. Place cookie sheets in a cool place for about one hour, so chocolate drizzles can set up. Store in an airtight container, with waxed paper separating layers.
