These were very easy to put together. I wound up putting a little more cream in the recipe to get the ingredients to stick together. I might have put a little too much icing sugar in because I find it hard to measure. The lemon adds a wonderful flavor to a light and slightly sweet cookie or biscuit. Made for PRMR.
