Lemon Coolers

These little cookies are so easy and delicious.  They are my new favorite because they are so fast to make!  I found the recipe at Tasty Kitchen


1 cup flour
3/4 cup powdered sugar, divided
zest from one lemon, finely grated (easy with a microplaner)
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 tsp vanilla

Mix flour, 1/4 cup powdered sugar and lemon zest (I use a KitchenAid stand mixer).  Add butter and vanilla.  Mix to form a smooth dough.  Drop by generous teaspoons onto a parchment or Silpat-lined cookie sheet (makes 20 - 24 cookies, depending on your scoop).  Bake until cookie bottoms are golden brown, about 15 minutes.  Cool on a wire rack.  Place remaining powdered sugar in a Ziploc bag, add cookies a few at a time and shake to coat.
