Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, very soft
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, lemon zest, and salt.

In a large bowl, mix butter, sugar, and egg until combined. Gradually add dry ingredients until moistened.

Pinch off and roll dough into balls, each equal to 1 1/2 tablespoons; place on 2 baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. With fingers, flatten balls to 3/4-inch thickness.

Bake until lightly browned around edges, 20 to 25 minutes; transfer to racks to cool completely.

                Am I the only one that thinks that corn meal makes them gritty?  The flavor is wonderful, as is the general form and texture.  But the cornmeal lingers as a grit that takes a while to swallow.

                I really like these cookies.  To increase the lemon flavor, I drizzled a thin lemon icing over the baked cookies.  Great with a cup of tea or coffee.  I really can't stop eating them.

                Barbi50 , I use a mixture of  buckwheat flour and  rice flour as a substitute for the usual all purpose flour and the results are great .. I used it for lemon squares and they came out tastier than the original recipe that calls for all purpose flour.
                Would like to try it in this recipe as well

                Could you use corn or rice flour to make these more gluten free?

                I found these cookies too dense and dry. I won't make them again

                These were so easy to make and so tasty!  I did increase the amount of lemon zest to 2 lemons (mine weren't very big so it was prolly equal to 1.5 lemons).  Great recipe!

                Would it be possible to add nutrition info, e.g., calories per cookie, to these recipes??

                These are great! The cornmeal adds a crunchiness and goes great with the lemon flavoring. They are not too sweet, just the right amount. Everyone loves these when I take them to gatherings.

                Can also be made Vegan and tastes great.  Use margerine and egg replacer (powdered form).  Simple and delicious.
