Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar and lemon zest and juice until smooth.
Tips:
- Choose the right lemons. Use Meyer lemons if you can find them, as they are sweeter and less tart than regular lemons. If you are using regular lemons, you may want to add a little extra sugar to the glaze.
- Zest the lemons before juicing them. This will help to release the lemon's essential oils and give the glaze a more intense flavor.
- Make sure the butter is cold before adding it to the glaze. This will help to prevent the glaze from curdling.
- Bring the glaze to a simmer over low heat. Do not let it boil, as this will cause the glaze to thicken too much.
- Dip the lemon slices in the glaze while it is still warm. This will help the glaze to adhere to the lemons.
- Let the lemon slices cool completely before serving. This will help the glaze to set.
Conclusion:
Glazed lemon bites are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover lemons. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sweet and tangy snack that everyone will love. So next time you have a lemon on hand, give this recipe a try!
