  1. Good, moist cookie. Very quick and easy to prepare. I followed others' suggestions and dusted them woth icing sugar before they cooled. After the first batch, I added some lemon flavouring as I found the flavour very mild. My husband and kids polished these off very quickly!
     
  2. I loved this recipe. This really hit the spot. They were so easy to make and so moist. I did try some white icing on them and that really set them off. This is a keeper. Thanks for the wonderful recipe.
     
  3. I am torn when it comes to how to rate these cookies. They were good, but not great. My kids (ages 5 and 1) LOVED them. I liked them. I baked them on a foil-lined (and sprayed) cookie sheet at 350 for 10 minutes. I added 1/2 tsp lemon juice to the batter after tasting the first few cookies, and that helped a lot. I think topping these with some glaze would give them 5 stars for me, but I was actually out of powdered sugar when I made these. One great thing about them is that they are super easy.
     
  4. Very good and very easy. I took previous suggestions and baked them at 350 instead of 375, and baked them on cookie sheets lined with foil that had been sprayed lightly with baking spray. When they were VERY lightly browned on the bottom, removed them - about 10 minutes. Made a glaze with powdered sugar, (about half pound), a tablespoon of melted butter, about a tablespoon of milk, and a little lemon juice and drizzled the cookies. VERY good, and a keeper! thanks.
     
  5. These were really good. I didn't have a lemon cake mix or a yellow cake mix, so I make my own. 2 cups flour, 1 1/2 cups sugar, 1 tbsp baking powder, 1/2 cup dry milk., Then I added some lemon extract and lemon juice for the flavor. They came out so tasty! I will definitely be keeping this recipe.
