    List of Ingredients




    Buttermilk Cookies from David


    For cookies

    3 cups all purpose flour
    1 tsp grated lemon zest
    1/2 tsp baking soda
    1/2 tsp salt
    1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
    1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
    2 large eggs
    1 tsp pure vanilla extract
    2/3 cup well shaken buttermilk

    For glaze

    1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar
    3 Tbsp well shaken buttermilk
    1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

    Recipe





    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. with rack in middle. Butter 2 large
    baking sheets. Whisk together flour, zest, baking soda, and salt.

    Beat together butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer
    until pale and fluffy. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each
    addition, then beat in vanilla. Mix in flour mixture and buttermilk
    alternately in batches at low speed, beginning and ending with flour
    mixture, until smooth.

    Drop level tablespoons of dough about 1 1/2 inches apart onto baking
    sheets. Bake, 1 sheet at a time, until cookies are puffed and edges are
    golden, 12 to 15 minutes per batch. Cool cookies on sheets 1 minute,
    then transfer cookies to racks.

    Glaze cookies: Whisk together all glaze ingredients and brush onto tops
    of warm cookies. Let stand until cookies are completely cooled and glaze
    is set.
