1 cup butter softened
2 teaspoons lemon peels grated
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
2 cups flour
2/3 cup powdered sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
Powdered sugar
Granulated sugar or frosting (optional)
In a medium bowl, mix butter, lemon rind, vanilla, and lemon extract until blended.
Add flour, 2/3 cup powdered sugar, and salt; stir until well blended. Divide dough in half. Cover and chill 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 325°. Place one portion of dough at a time on a surface lightly dusted with powdered sugar. Roll to about 1/4 -inch thickness. Dip cutters in powdered sugar and cut cookies. Place cookies 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Sprinkle with granulated sugar before baking if not decorating cookies after baking. Prick with a fork.
Bake 18 to 20 minutes just until golden. Do not overbake. Cool on wire racks. If desired, decorate with frosting. Store loosely covered if decorated; otherwise, store in an airtight container.
