Dear Sis,
William and I decided to bake cookies today. We tried something new because we had a bag of fresh lemons on the counter.

Ingredients
- 2/3 c granulated sugar
- zest of 2 lemons
- 2 c unbleached flour
- 1 c cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1/2 t salt
- 1/4 t baking soda
- 1/3 c heavy cream
- 1 T vanilla bean paste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Work sugar and zest together until well distributed and fragrant. Stir in dry ingredients.
- Cut in cold butter until crumbly. A stand mixer can do the work quickly.
- Make a well in the crumbly mixture, and mix in cream and vanilla paste by hand until dough forms.
- On a floured surface, press dough to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut into 1 inch squares (for smaller cookies) 1x2 inch rectangles (for larger cookies). Use a turner to transfer from rolling surface to baking sheets. Space 2 inches apart and bake 10-12 minutes. Cool on pan a few minutes before removing to cooling racks.
