✨ What You’ll Need:
- 1/2 cup (1 stick / 113g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest (freshly grated)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- Optional: extra powdered sugar for dusting or lemon glaze
👩🍳 Directions:
1. Preheat & Prep
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix the Dough
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract — mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and cornstarch.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and mix until a soft dough forms.
3. Shape the Biscuits
- Scoop 1 tablespoon of dough, roll into a ball, and gently flatten on the baking sheet.
- Leave a little space between each biscuit.
4. Bake
- Bake for 12–14 minutes, or until the bottoms are just lightly golden.
- Let them cool completely on the baking sheet — they’re delicate!
5. Optional Toppings
- Dust with powdered sugar for a soft finish.
- Or drizzle with a simple lemon glaze:
(1/2 cup powdered sugar + 1 tbsp lemon juice, whisked until smooth)
💡 Tips:
- Cornstarch makes them extra soft and melt-in-your-mouth.
- Want extra zing? Add a pinch of lemon extract or a touch more zest.
- Store in an airtight container — they stay good for up to a week (if they last that long
