Easy to make. Simple directions. I found that the lemon taste is too subtle though. Next time I would add more lemon juice or zest. It also took a long time for my cookies to turn brown. Not sure why but it was way more than the 8-10 minutes it says. They are definitely tasty though!

I was searching for a light butter cookie to serve with home made raspberry sorbet. This recipe sounded good, but turned out just "ok" .

These cookies were very good. I didn't get too much of a lemon flavor, but I'll try again and maybe add more zest or juice, or both! Either way, they are a delicious butter cookie.

I love lemon cookies, they are so light and crisp. They look pretty wrapped in celophane and ribbons and given as gifts.

I made this with my neices, it was a lot of fun and we decorated them for July 4th afterwards..the only thing that seemed to be lacking was more flour.. I think you need about 1 more 1/2 cup for it to really work. The dough was too runny to roll out. But other than that, thumbs up!

I made this with margarine and lemon juice & rind from 1/2 a lemon, it was just about lemony enough. Nice texture, doesn't flatten out. I liked it as is, but if you like a moister cookie, frosting may be a good idea.

These were a little dry, but I put lemon flavoured cake icing on top instead of sugar. Still pretty good :)

I've made these cookies several times, sometimes substituting orange for lemon. They have a light, delicate taste, and the recipe allows for versatility. You do need to watch that they don't overbake, but the time set out in the recipe is pretty much on target.

This recipe is excellent! I added a little more lemon zest to the dough. I did not decorate with granulated sugar, instead I made an icing with powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Every person that tried these cookies, thought they were wonderful. Thank you for the recipe.

These are very good. I used more lemon zest than the recipe called for, about twice as much. Also, keep a close eye on the cookies while they are baking. They will overbrown if you give them half a chance.

I added two bars of chopped good quality white chocolate to these, and they were excellent. Be sure to chop the zest to nearly nothing - zest near the surface of the cookies became hard and not too pleasant.
