Lemon Meltaway Cookies
"These yummy little Lemon Meltaway Cookies are buttery, lightly sweet with the perfect lemony tartness. Their name says it all, "Meltaway" and that's exactly what they do, they simply melt in your mouth! These cookies are similar to Snowball Cookies but with a lemon twist. So, if you love cookies that aren’t too sweet, and have a little tang, then these are the perfect cookie for you. Go ahead and make a batch and see for yourself."
NotesIt's much easier to zest the lemon before juicing it. Also, make sure to zest only the yellow part of the lemon rind, and not the white part.
If the dough is dry and crumbly, put it in a microwavable bowl and warm it in the microwave at low power for about 30 seconds and then mix again.
