Lemon Sugar Tea Cookies



















Ingredients
- 3/4 cup butter
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon lemon extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup white sugar

Directions:

1. In a medium bowl, cream together butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, corn syrup, and lemon extract. Stir in flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Cover dough, and chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour.

2. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Roll chilled dough into walnut sized balls. Roll balls in remaining sugar, and place on the prepared cookie sheet.

3. Bake 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned.

Notes: Kev wanted cookies that would go nice with tea so I found this recipe. I prepared the cookie dough and chilled in the fridge. After dinner, we went over to Uncle Henny's. Samuel and I rolled the dough into balls. We left the first batch plain and dipped the second batch into sugar. I used 2 teaspoon of real lemon juice but the taste was too faint.
