How to Make Christmas Chewy Lemon Crinkle Cookies
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
Beat softened butter and granulated sugar in another bowl until fluffy.
Combine the egg and fresh lemon juice with the butter mixture; mix well.
Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just mixed.
Scoop out dough balls (about two tablespoons each) and roll them in powdered sugar.
Bake for about 10-12 minutes, until they crackle and are just set on the edges.
Allow them to cool on wire racks.
Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days or refrigerate them to keep them fresh longer. For freezing, place cookies in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 3 months.
