Time 1h5m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup white sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup ricotta cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon almond extract
½ teaspoon lemon zest
1 large egg, room temperature
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice

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.

Time 19m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons solid coconut oil
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups almond flour or almond meal ((I have used both with success))
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt
1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips + more for topping if desired

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.

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.

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup vegetable oil
½ cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup powdered sugar
⅓ cup lemon juice

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.

  • While cookies cool, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice and glaze cookies however you like.
