Chewy Lemon Cookies

Lemon lovers this is the cookie recipe for you! It is full of plenty of lemon zest and juice from fresh lemons, a crisp edge and a super chewy center.

They are super fast to make and have become my favorite cookie. They have the perfect texture and are full of fresh lemon flavor!

- Butter - Lemon juice - Lemon zest - Sugar - All-purpose flour - Cream of tartar - Egg yolks

Ingredients

In a large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer) cream together the butter, sugars, and lemon zest on medium speed. Add the egg yolks and lemon juice to the butter mixture and cream until smooth. Add the flour mixture and then mix until just combined.

Scoop dough into balls and roll them in the sugar/lemon zest mixture. Place the cookie dough balls on a cookie sheet 2 inches apart.

Bake for 9-10 minutes or until the edges are firm and the tops have beautiful cracks. Place on a cooling rack and enjoy warm, room temperature, (or even cold!)
