List of Ingredients




1 cup butter, softened
1-1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt

GLAZE:
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 to 3 tablespoons milk


Recipe



In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and confectioners' sugar. Beat in the egg, lemon juice and peel. Combine flour and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well.

Using a cookie press fitted with a bar disk, form dough into long strips on ungreased baking sheets. Cut each strip into 2-1/4-in. pieces (do not separate pieces). Bake at 400° for 5-7 minutes or until set (do not brown). Cut into pieces again if necessary. Remove to wire racks to cool.

For glaze, in a small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, cocoa, vanilla and enough milk to achieve desired consistency. Drizzle over cookies. Let stand until set. Yield: 4-1/2 dozen.
