Instructions:
1️⃣ Preheat & Prepare – Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2️⃣ Mix Wet Ingredients – In a large bowl, beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
3️⃣ Combine Dry Ingredients – In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, stirring until fully combined.
4️⃣ Scoop & Shape – Using a spoon, scoop small portions of dough and place them onto the baking sheet. Flatten slightly with the back of the spoon.
5️⃣ Bake & Cool – Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let cool on a wire rack.
6️⃣ Dust & Serve – If desired, sprinkle powdered sugar over the cooled cookies for an extra touch of sweetness.
Pro Tips for the Best Lemon Spoon Cookies
✔ Use fresh lemon juice & zest for the best flavor—bottled juice won’t give the same fresh taste.
✔ For extra softness, slightly underbake the cookies and let them finish setting on the tray.
✔ Drizzle with a simple lemon glaze (powdered sugar + lemon juice) for extra zing!
✔ Store in an airtight container to keep them fresh for up to a week.
