Guys whoever haven't try to make this recipe you must now! It's freaking amazing! Melting in mouth not too sweet it's super yummy! It came out exact 12 cookies and 4 cookies left now, me and my boyfriend been eating it since an hour ago 😅😅 Thank you so much for the recipe. We love it!!! ❤ 😍 💖 ❣ 💕
@@CookieSweets you're welcome... Will definitely try your other recipes. I made 3 batches last weekend for a private graduation party, everybody love it and nothing left to bring back home. I'm so happy! 😆😘 This cookies became my first fav cookies now. My heart for you ❤❤❤😘😘😘 Again thank u so much!!! 🤗🤗❤
I am so happy to hear that they were so popular at your celebration! I’ve never had any leftover after a party or potluck either, so I usually keep a couple at home for myself haha! I really hope that you enjoy the other recipes too! Thanks again for your support! 🥰
@@CookieSweets that's a good idea 💡 😆 will do next time. But anyway I made again last night 😄 It's really good to always have it at home and enjoy it with a cup of tea whenever we want. Thank u and You're welcome..
Thank you so much for this recipe. I used it and my cookies turned out great,but if I had a recommendation I would say to put the cookies in for a little longer than 10 minutes.
Me and my girlfriend have gotten into a baking war recently and im gonna end it once and for all next week with these haha hope mine come out as good as yours look! Do they have a crunch to them or are they soft? Thanks for the recipe and ill let you know if mine turn out good!
Hello! The cookies do have a crisp texture and a slight crunch when you first bite into them, and then they melt in your mouth like a typical shortbread. Best of luck with your baking war, I’d love to hear how they turn out!
@@CookieSweets I couldn’t wait. I had to do a test run today and bake them…OMG they are perfect!!! Easily the best lemon biscuit ive ever eaten thankyou so much! Would these keep in the fridge fresh for about 3 days and still be good? They’re easy to make but im scared my next batch wont be as good!
@@CookieSweets yup I won! She now has to make me some triple choc chip cookies 😈 these were so good that im not making these for my Nan, Auntie and Cousins today haha thankyou so much! I tip my hat to you 🎩👍
I made them last night and I love them, they are like shortbread. The only thing I wanna ask is my dough seemed more on crumbling side; its malleable, but it was still a little crumbled on the edge. FYI, I only have hand mixer and use Canadian ingredients.
I’m so glad that you enjoyed the recipe! If you find that the dough is crumbly to the point that it’s hard to work with you could add a tablespoon of water or alternately you could omit 1-2 tablespoons of flour when making the dough. Hope this helps!
I tried these and they came out well. Made them for a church kid for learning a set of review Bible verses. He really liked them. He finished his next set and asked if I could do a vanilla version? I think it should work but wondered if that is anything you have already tried? I figure vanilla extract in place of lemon and maybe a little cream in the icing....? Have you tried variations? Thanks!
Hello. substituting lemon juice would affect the texture, but you can omit the lemon zest altogether. It will result in less lemon flavour but still be tasty!
Hi! Unfortunately I don’t think this would be the best glaze to decorate on top of, I would be worried about colour bleed since this is such a wet glaze.
@@CookieSweets Aww. Thank you for your response. I really wanted to try them since I read how delicious they are in the comments. I'm doing a bridal shower and wanted to try my first attempt at monogrammed cookies.
Awe, I’m sorry! If you piped the monograms as transfers as let them fully set before adding them to the cookies, it would reduce the likeliness of the colour bleeding. Alternately I would suggest finding a lemon royal icing recipe and using that instead of the glaze.
Hello! The weight in grams varies depending on what you are measuring, here’s some gram measurements for this recipe. One cup of butter = approx. 227 grams (1/2 cup butter = approx. 114 grams. ) 1 cup of flour = approx. 120 grams 1 cup powdered sugar = approx. 120 grams (1/3 cup = approx. 40 grams). Hope this helps!
My apologies for the late response. By lemon concentrate do you mean lemon extract? If so you could definitely use a small amount mixed with some water in place of the lemon juice. If you’re referring to a lemonade concentrate in theory it should still work however it may yield slightly different (and likely sweeter) results. Hope this helped answer your question
I had to make this in the morning, to bake in the afternoon. So stuck them in the fridge. Also used bobs red mill gluten free flour 1:1 instead of regular flour. I am guessing the flour substitution wasn’t so good as the dough never really cake together. Was crumbly. Wasn’t able to roll it at all. Just broke off chunks and squished into the pan. And ate all the rest of the raw dough (delish). Will use regular flour next time… and bake straight away.
Hello, I do not have experience with gluten free flour but have heard that it can affect the consistency and moisture content to I suspect that may have been the reason. If the dough was too cold it could have also caused it to be difficult to roll. I hope the next batch worked out!
i dont know what tf i did wrong but these came out puddly and bubbly and ruined my day even more and i know its my fault but im really sad. and i need to get my feelings out. i apologize.
I’m sorry that your cookies didn’t turn out, I know how disappointing that can be, no need to apologize! Are you in Europe by chance? Here in Canada our butter is 80% milk fat (20% water) but I know that some European butter has a higher fat content (around 83% ) so this may have contributed to the overspreading. The most common reason shortbread cookies would overspread would be if there isn’t enough flour to hold the melted fat. If you do decide to try this recipe again I would recommend adding an extra 2 tablespoons of flour if the dough is still really soft/sticky. I hope this is helpful 😊

Excellent glazed lemon cookies....yum.

Thank you so much for this recipe. I used it and my cookies turned out great,but if I had a recommendation I would say to put the cookies in for a little longer than 10 minutes.
I am so glad you enjoyed the recipe! Great recommendation, my oven runs a little hot so I usually go with the shorter end of the baking time 😊

For how much time can we store this cookie ?
Amazing recipe btw ❤️❤️
Hi Harshita! They will keep for one week refrigerated or 4-5 days at room temperature. I’m glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Sounds delicious!
Thanks so much!! 😊
Thanks for the recipe. I live in Thailand which is very hot and humid country, is it okay if l keep it in refrigerator?
Yes! These cookies can definitely be stored in the fridge! 😊
Do these taste like girl scout lemonade cookies? Those are the only lemon flavored food I like and they're so delicious.
I honestly have no clue.. sorry. We don’t have Lemon Girl Scout cookies where I am in Canada and now I feel like I’ve been seriously missing out!
@@CookieSweets Oh no I'm sorry.
I’ve added them to my list of foods I must try! If I do end up tracking them down I’ll come back and update this post to answer your question! ❤️
@@CookieSweets Thank you! ❤
Basically, shortbread cookies.
Yep they sure are!
Can you substitute the lemon zest for lemon juice in the cookies?
Hello. substituting lemon juice would affect the texture, but you can omit the lemon zest altogether. It will result in less lemon flavour but still be tasty!
@CookieSweets maybe lemon extract / essence?
Do these spread? I’m wanting to use a heart cookie cutter but I don’t want to go through the trouble if they’re just going to spread on me!
Hello! My apologies for the late reply. These cookies do spread a little bit, so the shape isn’t quite as sharp as it would be for a sugar cookie.
I am trying these today because our Meyer lemon tree is got too many lemons than I know what to do with.
That sounds amazing!
Can these be decorated after they set for 2 hours. I need a glaze that can be monogrammed on top of.
Hi! Unfortunately I don’t think this would be the best glaze to decorate on top of, I would be worried about colour bleed since this is such a wet glaze.
@@CookieSweets Aww. Thank you for your response. I really wanted to try them since I read how delicious they are in the comments. I'm doing a bridal shower and wanted to try my first attempt at monogrammed cookies.

@@CookieSweets
Thank you for that brilliant idea.
You’re welcome, I really hope they turn out for you! 😊❤️
Salted or unsalted butter??
You can use either, I use salted in all my recipes unless otherwise stated 😁
How do I print the recipe?
What is a cup?
Hello! The weight in grams varies depending on what you are measuring, here’s some gram measurements for this recipe.
One cup of butter = approx. 227 grams (1/2 cup butter = approx. 114 grams. )
1 cup of flour = approx. 120 grams
1 cup powdered sugar = approx. 120 grams (1/3 cup = approx. 40 grams). Hope this helps!
@@CookieSweets thank you
You’re welcome!!
can i use lemon concentrate I want to make without going to store

I burnt the first few batches but these were good 😅
I'm sorry to hear that, I'm glad they eventually worked out for you!
Didn't work out, they amost melted in the oven even though the proportion with flour was right
I’m sorry to hear that the cookies didn’t work out for you! If you’d like I can try to help you trouble shoot
They didn’t work out I don’t like them!
Heaven
Thank you so much!
i dont know what tf i did wrong but these came out puddly and bubbly and ruined my day even more and i know its my fault but im really sad. and i need to get my feelings out. i apologize.
