Lemons

Lemons are my favorite. Lemon flavored anything is my top choice in food, too. I absolutely love lemon bars, lemon drops, lemon cookies, lemonade, lemon pasta and lemon anything!

At first, I didn’t really like lemons that much. When Matisse would make her lemon bars, I thought they were disgusting––this citrus, gooey, seemingly under baked “dessert” did not seem worthy to be a dessert. However, one day I actually decided to try it with an open mind, and I loved it! Ever since then, lemon flavored anything has been my favorite.

My all-time favorite dessert now is lemon bars, too. Tonight I decided to make some lemon cookies instead, since I had a sweet tooth. Naturally, I searched on Pinterest for a highly rated recipe (because any bad lemon dessert recipe could go South quickly). I eventually found these delicious-looking, highly rated, simple lemon cookies. Since I spent the evening with my Mom, I decided to try and make them. And oh my goodness, I am so glad that I did. These are some of the best cookies I have ever made. They are so light and fluffy, yet dense and rich. The lemon flavoring is perfectly balanced, I couldn’t have been more pleased. This is one recipe to save for the future.
