Lemon Meltaways

Serve these cookies at room temperature with a cup of tea or coffee for a delightful treat.

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or refrigerate them to extend freshness for up to two weeks.

Variations:
Add a pinch of poppy seeds to the dough for a subtle crunch and extra flavor.

For a deeper lemon flavor, add an extra teaspoon of lemon zest to both the dough and glaze.

FAQ:
Can I use bottled lemon juice for the glaze?
Fresh lemon juice is recommended for the best flavor, but bottled lemon juice can be used if fresh lemons are unavailable.

What can I do if my dough is too soft to handle?
If the dough is too soft, chill it in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to make it easier to shape and handle.

These Lemon Meltaways are light, tangy, and utterly delightful, making them a refreshing treat any time of the year!
