pip posted:Chris's Custom Cookies posted:Actually I never liked sugar cookies, so I kept tweaking recipes until I found one I loved (life was easier when I didn’t like them,lol). I simply add the zest of 1 large or 2 small lemons to my dough and juice the lemons and use the juice in place of some water in my icing. They are delicious �� and smell amazing. The lemon cuts done on the sweetness of the icing as well. During the fall, I replace the lemon zest and juice with orange and add a tablespoon of cardamom. These are quite popular as well. I hope you try this and love them
Sounds wonderful! I'm going to try them both ways.
@Chris's Custom Cookies, is it 1 tablespoon or 1 teaspoon of cardamom? If 1 tablespoon, are you making a large batch of cookie dough? Thanks!
I use a tablespoon but yes it is for a large batch. I use 1 tablespoon cardamom to 6 cups of flour
