Lemon Cookies

Small baked bites with a cracked surface and powdered sugar for Lemon Cookies

How do you make flourless lemon almond cookies?

Grind the almonds into flour and mix them with lemon zest, powdered sugar, baking powder, salt, and lemon juice. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes so it firms up. Form small balls, coat them in powdered sugar, and bake at 180°C for 10 minutes until lightly cracked on the outside.
