Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two cookie sheets. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. (3 minutes)

03

Step

In a large bowl, beat softened butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Gradually add sugar and continue beating until light and fluffy. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Beat in sour cream, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and lemon extract until well combined. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Reduce mixer speed to low; gradually add the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cookies are set and the edges are lightly golden. (12 minutes)

08

Step

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. (60 minutes)

For an extra burst of lemon flavor, consider adding a simple lemon glaze after the cookies have cooled.
Ensure your butter is properly softened for a smooth and creamy batter.
Store these cookies in an airtight container to maintain their soft texture.

    I didn't have lemon extract, so I used a little extra lemon zest and they were still delicious.
