Lemon cookies

It has been a rainy Sunday all day here in Holland… A rainy day asks for tea and cookies. So I went brainstorming on a new recipe on cookies. This one is inspired by shortbread. But I changed it here and there.

Se here is how I made them:

Ingredients:

1 lemon

90 gr. powdered sugar

250 gr. flower

175 gr. butter

1 egg yolk

1 egg

 

Rasp the lemon skin in a bowl. Put in the butter and sugar. Mix it for a while. Then put in one egg yolk and the flower (be careful, put it one spoon at a time). Mix everything until you have a nice dough.

Take out the dough and flatten it until its about 0,5 cm thick.

Take out circles (about 5 cm) from your dough. place them on your oven plate.

 

Take the other egg end beat it up a little, then add a little bit of the egg on the top of the cookies.

Put them in the oven for about 8-10 minutes, then take them out and wait 5 minutes before eating them.

They where delicious!

Have fun making them yourself!
