Chewy Meyer Lemon Cookies
You know it's wintertime when Meyer lemons make their appearance in stores! I love fresh citrus during the winter-honestly, that is probably the best part of winter, because it is certainly not the weather. If you have never had a Meyer lemon, they are not as zesty as a regular lemon, but more of a cross between a lemon and a tangerine. The tang is much more subtle. If you pick up a bag, I would use the other half to make Meyer lemon curd so you can freeze and enjoy later with other desserts!
Spring is just around the corner, and even though we have had a bit of a false spring here, I know March 21 will be here so soon. Photographed here are my very first spring flower blooms-daffodils and anemone!
These cookies are perfect. Do not over bake at all or you risk losing this perfect chewy texture. The cornstarch in the recipe really helps with that chew as well.
In here, I had to list cook time as 4 hours, but really that is overall *time* to make the recipe including 3-4 hours of chilling time. The bake time is only 20 minutes.
