Lemon Crinkle Cookies
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
½ cup butter, melted and cooled
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 Tbsp freshly grated lemon zest
1 tsp lemon extract
½ cup powdered sugar
Mix together flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside. In a large bowl, mix the melted butter and granulated sugar with a whisk until smooth. Add the egg and egg yolk and combine with a whisk. Add lemon extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest and whisk together. Stir in the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Refrigerate for 2-4 hours. Preheat the oven to 325 F. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and roll in the powdered sugar, coating completely. Place the balls 2 inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are fully set, and the middle is not too wet to the touch. Cool completely before serving. Makes 18 cookies.
