LEMON DOG COOKIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Cream sugar, butter, and lemon zest together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• Combine eggs, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a cup; mix using a fork until combined. Beat into egg mixture slowly on low speed.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl. Add to egg mixture slowly on low speed until just combined. Do not overbeat; dough will be sticky. Cover and chill dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes; it will still be sticky after chilling.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Form dough into balls using a cookie scoop or tablespoon and roll each in powdered sugar. Place onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Lightly smash each ball down using your hand.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the middle of each cookie is just barely set, 11 to 12 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack completely before storing in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Using a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
• Using a standing mixer, beat the butter and sugar until creamy and fluffy.
• On medium speed, beat in the lemon juice and zest until combined.
• Gradually add the flour mixture, beating on low until combined.
• Add the oatmeal and beat until combined.
• Use a small ice cream scoop, scoop out some dough and place the cookies on the cookie sheet.
• Place the 1/3 cup sugar in a small bowl alongside another small bowl filled with water.
• Dip the bottom of a flat glass in the water and then in the sugar.
• Lightly flatten each cookie.
• Bake in the oven for 10 - 12 minutes.
• Allow the cookies cool for a few minutes before moving to a wire rack.
• Once cooled, dip the top of the cookies into the icing.
• Place back on the wire rack and allow icing to harden. Enjoy!
