Lemon Cooler Cookies

By Tufgrlz

Ingredients

• 1 cup flour
• 3/4 cup confectioners sugar (divide into 1/2 + 1/4 cup)
• 1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
• 1 stick salted butter, softened
• 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 350.

Mix flour, 1/4 cup confectioners sugar and lemon zest in a medium bowl. Add butter and vanilla; beat (or simply mix with hands) until ingredients form into a dough.

Drop cooke dough by generous teaspoons onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Bake until cookie bottoms are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

Place remaining 1/2 cup confectioners sugar in a quart-sized zipper-lock bag. Working a dozen at a time, drop the cookies into the sugar; shake to coat.
