The lemon-mint flavor of these cookies will enhance your Chanukah with a light and refreshing twist on the run-of-the-mill shape cookies we all grew up on.
Yield: approximately 2 dozen
3/4 cup unsalted butter or margarine, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice plus the zest of 1 lemon
3 mint leaves, cleaned and chopped into tiny pieces
2 and 1/4 cups Glicks Flour
1/2 teaspoon Haddar Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a cookie sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.
In the bowl of an electric mixer using the cookie paddle (or in a large bowl by hand), cream together butter/margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg, lemon juice, lemon zest, and mint and mix well. Add dry ingredients and mix well.
Form dough into a ball and flatten into a disc shape. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Roll to approximately quarter-inch thickness and cut shapes. Place on cookie sheet.
Bake for 11 minutes. For soft cookies, do not overbake. For crispier cookies, bake for an additional one to two minutes.
