Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 375 degree F. In a bowl, combine sugar, shortening, salt and food coloring. Blend thoroughly. Add remaining ingredients, mix well. I lightly floured a surface on my counter to roll the cookies and cut with a biscuit cutter. Recipe states to just roll small portions at a time. Like I said in description of recipe, I got lazy and made drop cookies as well, using my small cookie scoop ( about 1 tbsp. ) I sprayed a sheet pan, it didn't call for that, but I always do. Place on sheet, about 1 inch apart. Recipe states to sprinkle with sugar if desired. I didn't, as I used my lemon glaze. Bake for 8 - 10 minutes. Remove cookies from pan, cool on rack and frost if desired. I think the addition of my glaze really put these over the top.
- 2. Glaze : Place all ingredients in a medium bowl. Whisk until smooth If needs thinned, either add more juice or milk. If needs to be thicker, add more sugar.
- 3. Spread over cooled cookies. I sprinkled mine with yellow sugar crystals.
