Quest 25: Lemon WindFish Egg Cookies

Nothing is better than cookies, except for maybe more cookies. This recipe is a delicate lemon sugar cookie that is super simple to make. These cookies are freezer cookies, so plan ahead when making them. In true LOZ fashion, we are shaping this cookies into triangle shapes to so when they bake, they look like Windfish eggs! And rolling the cookies in pink sugar to make them shine really makes them pop. These cookies will be put you in the mood for spring - even though it's still snowing here. :(  
Gear
2 cups GF AP flour with xanthan gum
1 cup confectioners' sugar
 1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 large egg yolks
1/4 cup Pink Decorating Sugar

Quest
In a food processor, pulse flour, confectioners' sugar, salt, and lemon zest until combined. Add butter and process until sandy.  

Add egg yolks and lemon juice; pulse until dough comes together. Divide dough in half and form each into a 2-inch-wide log. 

Wrap in plastic and form into a triangle log. Freeze until firm, at least 3 hours but could last up to a month!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spread granulated sugar on a piece of parchment; roll logs over pink sugar to coat. 


Slice logs into 1/4-inch-thick slices and arrange, 1 inch apart, on two parchment-lined baking sheets or use baking mats. 


  1. Bake until cookies are golden brown around edges, about 15 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool.
