Hello and welcome back to In the Kitchen with Matt I am your host Matt Taylor, today I am going to show you how to make Lemon Butter cookies, mmm, yummy. I had a request to make lemon butter cookies, so here we go that is what we are going to do. It is a very easy recipe, simple ingredients, if I can do it, you can do it, let’s get started. First let’s go ahead and preheat our oven to 350 degrees F. or 176 Celsius. Next I have my butter which has been softened at room temperature, down below in the description I will have the amounts for all the ingredients. And now what I am going to do is I am going to add my powdered sugar. And then let’s cream this together. And then half way through let’s go ahead and scrape the sides once. All right so we want to beat it so it is nice and smooth, it will probably be a couple of minutes for that, next let’s go ahead and add our lemon juice, our lemon zest, this is fine lemon zest I used a lemon zester for this, and now let’s mix that in there. And now we are going to add in our flour and salt so what I normally do, is I just take about a third of it first, and then add my salt on top of it, for the first mix. Give it a scrape, and so on until all the flour is incorporated. So I will come back when that is done, and then we go ahead and clean off the beaters, once the dough is ready. All right now what we do is we take a Tablespoon, or a Teaspoon, depending on what size you want to make these, and we want to just come and get some. And then we want to roll these into about an inch ball, like that, it’s a little bit bigger then an inch, just try and make them all roughly the same size. And then I am using a silicone mat, here on my cookie sheet, those of you who watch the show know that I love silicone mats, I will put a link down below where you can pick them up, if you want, or just use parchment paper. All right once you have your cookie sheet filled up just come in here with your fingers, push it down a little bit so it flattens it out, like so. And then we are going to bake these in the oven again at 350 degrees F, 176 C, and we are going to bake them for 12 to 14 minutes, and what I do is I have my rack set at the lower third and the upper third rack, and then what I am going to do is at the six minute mark, I am going to take this from the top or the upper third rack, and I am going to take it and turn it 180 degrees, and then put it on the bottom third rack, if that makes sense. So I am pretty much just rotating these around in the oven to make sure the cookies get baked evenly. All right when they come out of the oven they will look like this, they will have a slight brown edge to them, and underneath will be nice golden brown, and we are going to let these set here on the hot pan for a couple of minutes, and then we will transfer them over to that wire cookie rack. While our cookies are cooling on the cookie rack let’s go ahead and make our glaze. And to do that we are going to take our powdered sugar, our lemon juice, and our butter, we are just going to go ahead and mix this together, I am just using a fork, you can use a whisk, I like using the fork, and then you got a nice, glaze or frosting, that we are going to put on these cookies, just a thin little coating on top.
