Another cookie receipe request

Not really sure what they are though.. I think they are called lemon drops. they are the italian cookie with a yellowish icing on top and sometimes sprinkles... I love them and everyone I ask who makes them... Doesn't need a recipe they just know what to do!!!

Re: Another cookie receipe request

they came out HUGE (so be careful how big you plop down the dough on the cookie sheet. They were slightly brown on the outside and soft and flaky on the inside. Delicious!

ETA: I shaped them like small meatballs and they came out perfect.

Re: Another cookie receipe request

they are soo easy! The dough though is very very sticky, so make sure to put a LITTLE bit of flour on your palms before you begin.

The 8 tsp of Baking Powder is what makes them BLOW UP! LOLOL
