The best sugar cookies I have ever had. I have made these glutenfree using a rice flower blend added some zanthen gum and they turn out great.

I had really high hopes for these cookies but unfortunately they fell a little short for me. The texture was perfect. They were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. But for me, they had no real flavor. I added extra lemon juice and peel at the beginning (just because I like a more intense lemon flavor) and it just did not give it the punch it needed. I ended up making a glaze with lemon juice, a small amount of half and half and powdered sugar. That definitely gave it more flavor and I really like them now.

The flavor was nice, but the cookies were cakey inside and a bit dry. I iced them with powdered sugar icing with lemon juice and milk added in to thin the powdered sugar. The icing made up for the dryness. The cookies un-iced were not that great.

These were a big dissapointment. Added more lemon juice as others had suggested and they did not have any lemon flavor. I made a lemon frosting which helped a little but I will not make these cookies again.

OH. EM. GEE!!! These cookies are FABULOUS! These are, hands down, my new absolute FAVOURITE recipe, and the one I will turn to any time I EVER have to make Sugar Cookies!!! I made cutout cookies for a Halloween party and they came out crispy and lemony and DELICIOUS! I took pictures of them as they were on the cookie sheet, in the oven and after they baked, and I will post the pictures after I get pics of them frosted! They kept their shapes fairly well, though the bigger cookies tended to fluff up a bit more. They taste almost like those Danish butter cookies you get in the blue tin, but lemony and light! The cookies come out very light in weight; you can eat a bunch before realizing it! I don't even like crunchy cookies. Normally I make sugar cookies for others, but I eat very few of them myself. These ones, though - I have yet to even make the frosting and I've already devoured quite a bit of them! We didn't have problems with the dough sticking to the rolling pin or cutters (we lightly floured them) either. We're going to be whipping up a lemony frosting (whether regular or cream cheese has yet to be decided) and I will post pictures! All in all, though, a pretty much PERFECT cookie recipe!!! With all the people I'm going to be giving these to, I'm going to have to make a second batch!!! Note: In the picture I posted of the stack of containers, the cookies on top are burnt ones, made special for some friends of ours :)

I made these in my culinary arts class for parent's night and, though we were out of lemons, the cookies were a smashing success! But, also because of the lack of lemons, the cookies were not as lemony as they could have been. The cookie cutters are completely unneccesary for this recipe. My partner and I just used scooped out the dough with an ice cream scoop and simply flattened them down and smushed them out with the palm of our hands.
