They're crispy but still chewy, not too sweet, and the lemon flavor is just there. If you want more of a lemony flavor, then add more lemon zest.
Ingredients:
* The juice and zest of 1 medium/large lemon
* 1 cup of sugar
* 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
* 1/3 cup of canola/vegetable oil
* 1 1/2 cup of All Purpose flour
* 1 teaspoon of baking soda
1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
2. Combine the first four ingredients in a large bowl and set aside.
3. Then combine the dry ingredients and sift them into the large bowl. Mix with a spatula
4. Firmly press the cookie dough into a tablespoon and drop on baking sheet. Leave 1 inch of space between each cookie.
5. Bake for 7 minutes.
6. As the cookies come out of the oven, carefully (since the cookies are still hot) press your fingers on the surface of the cookies.
7. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
Note: This cookie dough will be more crumbly than the average cookie dough. It's almost like the texture of a pie crust, and it is supposed to be that way. I've tried adding more liquid into the batter and the texture was just not the same.
