I haven’t posted a Cookie Carnival goodie in a really long time. Not to say that I haven’t made any since February. I loved the Toasted Almond Lemon bars (which I made 3 times actually). I also enjoyed the Strawberry Shortcake cookies from last month. Truth be told- I’m just too lazy to post them.
I’m not sure what has motivated me to post these particular cookies. Maybe it’s the fact that I haven’t posted anything to my blog in over a month. Perhaps it’s because I actually made them at the beginning of the month rather than the last day of the month. Whatever the reason, these are yummy! I love all things lemon. And these are no exception. They’re not really what I consider a traditional cookie. They’re more like a tiny cake in my opinion. I loved the richness that the ricotta added to the cookie. I tried the glaze and didn’t really like it. I preferred them plain or with a light dusting of powdered sugar.
Although I’m not too lazy to post about these cookies, I am too lazy to add the recipe. Thus, I give you a link to Giada’s recipe on the Food Network website.
Why didn’t you make these when I was there??? I love lemon desserts….
I’ll have to make them again the next time you come for a visit.
I’ve made these before, and I loved them. I also thought they were cake-like.
That first picture looks so awesome!
Those look so delish! Tender and wonderful looking! I’ll have to mark the recipe!
Wow! These look amazing. Cant wait to try! Great photos, too.
I made these for the cookie carnival, too! Though, I have to admit I LOVED the cookie so much better with the frosting on them…not the frosting alone. I can’t wait to see what else you have to bake! (BTW, found your blog by doing a search for teh Cottage Cheese Pufflets from BFMHY that I, too, have from the library…too funny! My copy has this recipe’s last page torn out, so I’m hoping I can make it using your recipe you posted!)

I bet these were soft. They look good.
Those lemony cookies look so nice and light and good!
I made these this weekend for some friends and family… they were a big hit!!! I added an extra tablespoon of lemon juice to both the dough and the glaze and they came out really zesty, just how I prefer. Paired with a glass of riesling…. yum!
