Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Beat sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until blended. Increase speed to high and beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in ricotta cheese, lemon juice, almond extract, lemon zest, and egg on medium speed until well combined. Reduce speed to low. Add flour, baking powder, and salt; beat slowly until a dough forms.
- Drop dough about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheet using a cookie scoop.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are very lightly golden but still soft, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven, transfer to a wire rack, and cool completely before icing, about 30 minutes.
- Stir powdered sugar and lemon juice together in a small bowl to make a smooth icing. Drizzle icing onto the cookies. Set cookies aside to allow icing to dry completely.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set aside.
- Add the coconut oil and the pure maple syrup to a large bowl. If the oil is very hard, microwave for a few seconds until soft but not melted. Stir briskly with a whisk until the syrup and oil are mixed together - this may take a minute or two. Add the egg and vanilla and whisk together until combined.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the almond flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and stir together with a wooden spoon until combined. Stir in 1/2 cup chocolate chips.
- Scoop mounded tablespoonfuls onto the cookie sheet, spacing about two inches apart. Press down gently with your fingers to flatten slightly. Top each with a few additional chocolate chips, if desired.
- Bake until set and the edges are golden brown, 8-9 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Cookies keep well in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-5 days.

SOFT LEMON COOKIES WITH GLAZE
Delicious soft lemon cookies with a glaze. I make my glaze with a little lemon juice but you can use milk if you want it sweeter.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Use a spoon to make a well in the center of the mixture. Pour oil, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in the well. Mix and knead until a dough forms.
- Roll into balls and flatten with the heel of your hand or anything with a flat surface. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 8 minutes for a softer cookie, 10 to 12 minutes for a crispier cookie. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool, 8 to 10 minutes more.
- While cookies cool, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice and glaze cookies however you like.
