directions

  • Using an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar; add the vanilla, the lemon extract, the zest, and the juice, and beat the mixture until smooth.
  • Into the bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and the salt, and blend the dough well.
  • On a piece of wax paper form the dough into a log 1 1/2 inches in diameter, using the paper as a guide.
  • Freeze the log, wrapped in wax paper and foil, overnight, or up to three months.
  • Cut the log into 1/8-inch slices with a sharp knife and bake the cookies 2 inches apart in the middle of a preheated 350°F oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are just golden.
  • Transfer the cookies immediately to racks, let them cool, and sift the confectioners' sugar lightly over the lemon thins.
