If you're looking for a super healthy recipe—using fruit—this video is not where you will find it. But, this rich and satisfying cookie recipe is the Best Lemon Cookie Recipe you will find out there.

The BACK STORY:
There was a cookie exchange at work, and 72 (6 Dozen) cookies were needed. I decided to make Lemon Butter cookies. Initially, we were under the impression that we only needed five dozen but later learned that six were required. Don't worry; we made two additional cookies for ourselves—totaling 72 (6 Dozen) + 2.

Join us on this vlog adventure as we make Lemon Butter Cookies for the first time.

The Best Lemon Cookie Ingredients
Dough
4 Sticks | (Softened) Unsalted Butter
2 Tbsp | Lemon Zest
3 Tbsp | Lemon Juice
2 Cups | Powdered sugar
4 Cups | All-purpose Flour
1.5 Tsp | Salt

Glaze
1 Cup | Powdered Sugar
2 Tbsp | Lemon Juice
2 Tbsp | (Softened) Unsalted Butter
1 Tbsp | Lemon Zest

Cookie Directions
Fill a medium-sized bowl with water, add a half-cup of vinegar (to sanitize the exterior), then add Lemons. Let soak for 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350°.
Dry the Lemons, zest them, then freshly squeeze the juice into a small bowl and set aside.
In a large bowl, add the butter and powdered sugar, and whisk until the mixture is smooth. Then, mix in the Lemon zest, Lemon juice, flour, and salt—whisk for an additional 30 seconds. (Use a rubber spatula if you need to scrap the sides.)
With your hands, roll the dough into 1-inch balls, set on a plate, and then refrigerate for 2 minutes. (If you prefer larger cookies, roll them into 2-inch balls and refrigerate them for 4 minutes.)
Once the cookies are out of the fridge, place them evenly on a baking sheet, then flatten them gently.
Bake for 12 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned on the bottom. While cookies are baking, prepare the glaze.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes.
Once they have cooled, dip the top of the cookie in the glaze, then garnish with the lemon zest. Let cool for 10 minutes.
Enjoy!

Glaze
In a small bowl, hand-whisk the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and butter until smooth.
