Yield 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1 egg
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 cup poppy seed filling
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, beat margarine or butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in lemon peel and egg. Stir in flour, baking soda and cloves, mixing well.
  • Roll dough, between two pieces of waxed paper, into a 1/4-inch thick, 12"x10" rectangle. Refrigerate 30 minutes or until firm.

These cookies were a bit of a disappointment. The filling was too dry and the cookies were too crumbly. I think I might have overmixed the dough. I would recommend following the recipe carefully and not overmixing the dough.
