Lemon Delight Cookies

Last night, we made some cookies to sell at the bake sale at tonight's concert. They were very easy to make, and tasted really good with fresh lemons. Use the juice from a lemon you used for the grated peel.

Ingredients
• 4 ounces unsalted butter, chilled
• 1¼ cups sugar
• from 2 lemons:
```• 1 tbsp lemon juice
```• zest (peel grated)
• 1 large egg
• 1½ cups flour
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon salt

Preparation
• Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
• Line 3 large cookie sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
• Using an electric mixer, combine the butter, 1 cup sugar, the lemon zest and juice until fluffy.
• Mix in the egg. add the flour, baking soda and salt and combine.
• Place the remaining ¼ cup sugar in a small bowl. Roll heaping teaspoons of dough into balls, then roll in the sugar.
• Place on the prepared cookie sheets a few inches apart. Bake until golden around the edges, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer the cookie sheets to racks to cool completely.
