WW Friendly Iced Lemon Cookies Directions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, beat the light butter and granulated sugar substitute until creamy. Add the egg, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract, and beat until combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Form Cookies: Drop tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake: Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Prepare Icing: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar substitute, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth.
- Ice Cookies: Once the cookies are completely cool, drizzle the lemon icing over the top of each cookie. Allow the icing to set before serving.
