Lemon Cloud Cookies

These cookies have been in our family cookbook for a long time. I’m not sure where they came from originally, but they are delicious served with a cup of coffee or tea.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Flour
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 egg
• juice of 1 lemon or lime
• zest of 1 lemon or lime
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• confectioner’s sugar for dusting

Directions:

Mix all the ingredients together well and let the dough rest for about 20 minutes in the refrigerator.

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Using a small cookie scoop, form the cookies and roll each round in confectioners sugar. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 8-10 minutes. Delicious!
