These light, citrus cookies are a nice change of pace from typical Christmas cookies. Melted vanilla chips drizzled over the top is the fantastic finishing touch. —Darlene Dixon, Hanover, Minnesota

I agree with the May 9th review. I felt that I wasted a lot of butter & time on this cookie. Cookies are one of my specialties & this feels like it's missing something (no baking soda, powder or cream of tartar??). I used parchment lined sheets & could barely get them off the sheets without crumbling or breaking. Very dissapointed in the recipe.

Are you sure an ingredient wasn't left out? I followed the directions to the letter, and they were "chalky" and blah..... I'm mad at wasting so much butter and time on them. I LOVE to bake cookies, but this is a recipe I won't keep.

My Dad's FAVORITE cookie! I don't drizzle the white chocolate on it, but very easy to make and they are not heavy or too sweet.

I made 3/4 of the recipe to use 1 c butter. With a 1 tbsp scoop it made 46 cookies, 12 minutes was perfect on silpat lined sheets. I skipped the sugar and white chocolate, these cookies were perfect without, a nice delicate lemon flavour.

These were delicious- a nice change from the usual Christmas cookie. One thing I did different was the drizzle. I am not a big white chocolate fan and when I have worked with it, it's not the easiest thing to melt. What I did instead was make a drizzle out of confectioners sugar, a teaspoonful of water(or so) and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract- combine until the consistency you are happy to drizzle with. Other than that- stick to the recipe because these are yummy!!
