Time 30m

Yield 50 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
4 teaspoons lemon extract (2 for cookies / 2 for frosting)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 cups flour
8 teaspoons baking powder
6 cups confectioners' sugar (for frosting)
1/2 cup water (for frosting)

Steps:

  • FOR COOKIES: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Beat eggs, milk, 2 tsp lemon extract, sugar and oil in electric mixer at medium speed until well blended.
  • Reduce speed to low and add flour and baking powder until just blended to a soft, sticky dough.
  • Lightly flour your fingers and drop cookies by the teaspoon onto lightly greased cookie sheet.
  • (I prefer Silpat or parchment) Shape smooth and roundish because they hold their shape during baking.
  • Make right away for 8-10 minutes With a metal spatula, place cookies on a wire cooling rack.
  • Cool completely.
  • FOR FROSTING: Combine confectioners sugar, water and 2 tsp.
  • lemon extract (if you would like you can also add food coloring) in mixer on medium speed until smooth.
  • When cookies are completely cooled and still on wire racks (place newspaper or paper bags under racks), drizzle icing over cookies until covered.
  • Let dry.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and dry. I'm going to try again soon, though, because I'm sure they're delicious when made correctly.
