Carrie knows how to bake up some good cookies and this time she's going to show us how to zest up a batch of her favorites! Will Carrie's kitchen have the sweet smell of success?

INGREDIENTS:
1 stick butter, softened
1 1/2 cups flour
zest of 2 lemons
3/4 cup sugar
2 egg yolks
3 tsp fresh lemon juice
confectioners’ sugar to taste

TOOLS:
fork
measuring cups/spoons
bowl
baking sheet
spatula
strainer

REMEMBER THAT IT’S IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS COOK UNDER ADULT SUPERVISION. SOMETIMES WE USE OBJECTS THAT COULD BE HARMFUL, LIKE A KNIFE, SO DON’T EVER ATTEMPT TO DO THESE RECIPES ALONE.

  1. Have an adult preheat your oven to 350 degrees. That way the oven will be nice and hot come baking time.
  2. Add the ingredients: Combine 1 stick of softened butter, the zest of 2 lemons and 1 ½ cups flour in your bowl. When everything is added to the bowl, beat the mixture until it’s crumbly.
  3. Now add ¾ cup sugar and 2 egg yolks to your flour and butter mixture. Beat until mixture gathers to form a dough.
  4. Add a few tsp. of fresh lemon juice as needed until your cookie dough forms a ball.
  5. Form the cookies into balls and place finished cookie dough balls on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. If you do not have parchment, use a non-stick cookie sheet.
  6. Now it’s time to form an “x” shape on the top of each cookie. Dip a fork in powdered sugar and press down on cookie to form an X shape.
  7. Place each cookie onto your non-stick baking sheet and let them bake for 12-15 minutes. The cookies should look pale golden.
  8. When the cookies are done take them out of the oven and let them cool down for 5 minutes.
  9. Let the cookies cool for about 5 minutes and then serve.
