My mom loves lemon, so when I saw the Glazed Lemon Cookies in this month’s Everyday Food, I knew I had to make them for her for Mother’s Day.
If you love lemon, you have to try these. The glaze is super lemony – almost too lemony for me – but the cookies are exquisite. If you do make the glaze, you really only need to make a half recipe and you will have plenty for the cookies.
I packaged them in a tin that I found at Michaels craft store. I lined it with parchment, cut to fit using decorative edge scissors, and decorated the tin with ribbon, also from Michaels. They have some really nice ribbons for $1 that are great to have around for this sort of thing.
My mother is coming to town tomorrow to spend the afternoon with me and my sister. It will be so nice to see them both at the same time, and without the kids to interrupt us while we catch up!
I hope you all have a wonderful Mother’s Day, too! Be sure and tell us what you did.
The cookies look really good. They are making my mouth water!
We visited my Grandmother and it was a lovely day.
