LEMON SUGAR COOKIES

• 3/4 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp lemon zest
• 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt

• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 4 cups powdered sugar
• 1 dash salt
• 1 Tbsp lemon zest
• 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1-2 Tbsp milk, if needed

1. Cream butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Beat in eggs,
   lemon juice, and lemon zest till well combined.
2. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Roll dough into tablespoon sized balls and place on lightly
   greased cookie sheets. Flatten with a glass dipped in sugar.
4. Bake at 350° for 9-10 minutes, or till barely light brown on
   the bottom. Let sit 3-4 minutes on pan, then remove to cooling racks.
5. Cool cookies completely, then frost. I piped frosting on
   with a 1M star tip.

Frosting: 

1. Beat together butter, powdered sugar, salt, lemon zest, and
   lemon juice in a mixing bowl till creamy, adding milk if needed. If you are
   piping the frosting, it needs to be thick. If you are just spreading it on, you
   can add more liquid.
