How to Make Super Easy Lemon Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the zest of 2 lemons and ¼ cup lemon juice.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Press a pecan half into the center of each cookie.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store airtight at room temperature for up to 3 days.
