Tips:

  • Use fresh lemon zest for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried lemon zest.
  • Be sure to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help the cookies achieve a tender and crumbly texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough cookies.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will result in dry and crumbly cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
