How to Make Lemonade Stand Teasers

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This is easiest with an electric mixer.
  3. Beat in the lemon zest.
  4. Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Use cookie cutters to cut out your desired shapes.
  6. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  8. Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack.
  9. While the cookies cool, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and milk (if using) until smooth and creamy. Adjust the amount of lemon juice to achieve your desired consistency.
  10. Once the cookies are completely cool, frost them with the lemon frosting.
