Time 45m

Yield 64 Bars

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups butter or 1 1/2 cups margarine, softened
2/3 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons grated lemon peel
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 drops red food coloring, if desired (optional)
2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
5 -6 teaspoons lemon juice
1 drop red food coloring

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease bottom only of 15 x 10 x 1-inch pan with shortening. In large bowl, beat butter, 2/3 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon peel, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 2 drops food color with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy, or mix with spoon. Stir in flour until well blended. Press in pan, using floured fingers (flour fingers several times to prevent sticking).
  • Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until light golden brown.
  • In medium bowl, mix all glaze ingredients until smooth and spreadable. Pour glaze over warm bars; spread evenly (glaze will be very thin). Cool completely, about 1 hour. Bars are very tender; remove from pan using very flat-edged metal pancake turner. For bars, cut into 8 rows by 8 rows.
  • To cut diamond shapes, cut parallel lines, 1 1/2 inches apart, down length of pan, then cut diagonal lines, 1 1/2 inches apart, across straight cuts.

The cookies were a bit dry. I think I overbaked them.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover lemons. I always have a few lemons lying around and these cookies are a great way to use them up.

I'm not a big fan of lemon desserts, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The raspberry flavor really balances out the lemon and makes them really enjoyable.

These cookies were absolutely delicious! They had the perfect balance of sweetness and tartness, and the texture was amazing - crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I'll definitely be making these again soon.
