I had some lemons I needed to use up, so I decided to play around with a cookie recipe and I accidentally made quite possibly the best cookie I’ve ever baked.

“These cookies are insanely ridiculous.”

“These are even better than the lemon Girl Scout cookies!”

“They’re so soft, how did you make these?!”

“What did you put in these cookies?! They are so good!”

That is just some feedback I received after baking these lemon sugar cookies and sharing them with friends and family. They are the perfect summer treat and they are super easy to make. But be careful, they are addicting!
