Lemon Pound Cake Cookies

I was trying to make lemon cookies, but ended up making something totally different and I was glad with the outcome.

Original recipe makes 28 cookies

Ingredients

3/4 cup white sugar
2/3 cup salted sweet cream butter, softened
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 eggs
2 teaspoons lemon extract

  • PREP

    15 mins

  • COOK

    10 mins

  • READY IN

    25 mins

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Cream sugar and butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Whisk flour and baking powder together in a separate bowl; gradually beat into creamed butter mixture until just combined. Beat eggs, 1 at a time, into butter-flour mixture until dough is thoroughly mixed; stir in lemon extract. Drop small scoops of dough onto a baking sheet.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until cookies spring back when touched, 10 to 12 minutes.
