How to Make Lemon Wafers
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Drop rounded teaspoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each wafer.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the wafers cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
