These are basically little flat cakey things with a powdered sugar icing on top. If that doesn't sound terribly appealing, that's because it isn't. I dunno, just not my style of cookie; I mean I won't turn them down with a mug of tea, but it's not what I'd pick given a choice. I did these because of all the lemon cookies I looked at I thought they would ship the best, and they probably will, they just don't taste that great; the lemon flavor is not nearly as strong as I wanted it to be. Try a lemon cream cheese frosting and a more sugar cookie-like base next time.
Notes: Cookies don't taste of lemon at all, even though I doubled the lemon juice involved. I doctored up the icing to be more lemony, skipping water and adding lemon juice, but it was still way too sweet. Corn syrup helps to keep it the right consistency.
