      Awesome recipe! These cookies have a wonderful chewy texture that I love! (I did replace the shortening with butter, and it seemed to work just fine! :))

      I used store bought lemon peel, about a tablespoon plus a little lemon juice. They are really very pretty cookies.

      Delicious! This makes for a lovely tea/coffee cookie. I didn't have a lemon in the house, so I used 2 tsp of lemon extract and 2 tbsp of lemon juice....such a great lemon flavor! I also opted to coat them in powdered sugar afterwards instead of granulated sugar beforehand. I will definitely make these again!

      Awesome! I over-cooked a little and had one crunchy tray and one softer tray. They were great either way. They were incredible warm but you can only eat so many cookies before they cool off :-) Will definitely make again & again.

      My son just declared, "These are the best cookies I've ever had in my life!" Now, he is often enthusiastic, but even so, I loved this cookie too. We were generous with the zest (3T for a double batch), and used butter rather than shortening. I also used whole wheat pastry flour for 1/3 of the flour. You can't tell. Terrific, easy little gem of a recipe.

      These are really good. Crispy on the outside, chewy & lemony on the inside. Accurate measurements, clear instructions. They tasted best warm out of the oven, I recommend heating them before serving. These have just the right amount of lemon flavor.

      I baked these for my latest catering gig...a pig roast.... and served them with fresh strawberries.....after I watched 12 dozen cookies disappear, I knew I had a winner. I used half shortening and half real butter. It made a chewy/crisp on the outside cookie. I also added 3/4 tsp of lemon extract. They are STILL talking about the cookies.....and there were lots of other wonderful dishes there!

      These cookies are delicious! Just the right amount of lemon, and very soft. I used margarine instead of shortening, everything else the same. I will definitely make these again. Gorditapreciosa77

      Fabulous! Sweet and lemony - these cookies came out perfectly! I subbed with margarine and it gave the cookies a nice buttery undertone that I enjoyed. I added a 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract because I wanted to be sure and get a nice lemony cookie. The temp and cooking times are perfect and yielded a wonderful delicate light golden cookie. Thanks!

      This is a feel good cookie. Nice subtle blend of flavours, something like you would imagine your grandmother would have made. I did have to add extra flour (about 1/2 cup) as it was too soft to roll into balls.

      Yummy recipe! I didn't follow the recipe completely. I added 1 tsp of vanilla extract and about 1 tbsp of the juice from the lemon. The cookies were amazing! :-)

      Wonderful! I used all the lemon zest from one lemon and all the juice too (for a double batch) and they could have been lemony-er but were still good. And instead of rolling in regular granulated sugar I used some special large crystal sugar - made the sugar coating a little crunchier.

      I just made a batch of these to include with my holiday goodies, and oh my. I have a new favorite cookie! Thank you for sharing!! They are just about perfect. Next time I think I'll add a little more ginger (we're ginger lovers around here) and might skip the sugar rolling step (cause we're also lazy around here hehe). Yum!

      I love these cookies. Like other reviewers have said, they have a wonderful texture...slightly crispy outside and soft and chewy inside. I used the zest from one whole lemon and also added the juice into the egg/sugar mixture. Delightlful cookies. Thanks!

      I have just baked these and the lemony aroma in my kitchen is wonderful! I just ate one warm and it's the perfect amount of lemony, not too much and not too little. I did add half a tsp of lemon extract like another reviewer suggested. Thanks for another great recipe NurseDi!

      These cookies were absolutely wonderful!!! :) I used the splenda brown sugar blend and added a splash of lemon extract (just a little bit). I originally made these cookies to send to my boyfriend...but when my mother saw them...she tasted them and demanded i make them for her as well! :) So i had to make another batch right after the first one!!! :) Thanks for the Recipe...! :)

      As it has been said before about this recipe: "Ummmmmmmmmmm!" I must say I was a little hesitant about trying lemon cookies. But the texture is great! I made it exactly as the recipe states and the lemon flavor was just perfect, very suddle, not overpowering, just delicious. Thanks!

      Made these a second time, and still had trouble with them being a bit flat..hmmm. Made them oblong instead of completely round for a different look. :) They are delicious!
