Lemon is one of my most favorite flavors EVER.  So I have gathered 11 + of some of the most sweet and tart lemon desserts.  I am going to need these very soon!  With Summer upon us we all need a little {okay, a lot} sweet and tart lemon desserts, don’t you think?

Happy Thursday!!  The sickness is still hanging around here.  Boo!!  But…

As promised a few days ago, here is the recipe for the Delectable Lemon Crisps I used for my Mother’s Day Tea Party.

Delectable Lemon Crisps
Makes 2-3 dozen

Ingredients:
½ cups butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 whole egg
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
¼ teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoons baking powder
⅛ teaspoons baking soda
1-½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cups powdered sugar

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease light colored baking sheets with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Whip in vanilla, egg, lemon zest, and juice. Scrape sides and mix again. Stir in all dry ingredients slowly until just combined, excluding the powdered sugar. Scrape sides of bowl and mix again briefly. Pour powdered sugar onto a large plate. Roll a heaping teaspoon of dough into a ball and roll in powdered sugar. Place on baking sheet and repeat with remaining dough.

Bake for 9-11 minutes or until bottoms begin to barely brown and cookies look matte {not melty or shiny}. Remove from oven and cool cookies about 3 minutes before transferring to cooling rack.

*If using a non-stick darker baking tray, reduce baking time by about 2 minutes

I found this recipe via pinterest.  Just the perfect delectable lemon crisp flavor for me.

I hope you will give them a try for YOUR Mother’s Day Tea.
