I made my usual sugar cookie recipe, with just a couple changes.
I cut the amount of vanilla in half
I added the zest from 1 meyer lemon (my lemon was pretty small)
I added the juice from 1 meyer lemon (lemon was small but had a lot of juice)
I made cookie disks like I did here, and baked for 8 minutes.
Once completely cool, I drizzled them with lemon icing:
Mix powdered sugar and a little bit of milk together with juice from a whole meyer lemon to syrup consistency.
The cookies turned out very mild lemon, but the icing was a little tart and a little sweet. They tasted light – almost like there were no calories!
