These are my favorite sugar cookies. The lemon adds a unique flavor. They sure are good with coffee when company comes.

These are wonderful! The lemon flavor is subtle, but definitely there, and the cookies have good texture. Everyone in my house raved about these.

This is my favorite sugar cookie recipe to make. They are crispy, have a shortbread like texture and are the easiest to store. I also love the fact that they don't have to be rolled out! To the reviewer that said these cookies have no taste, pfft you did something wrong!

The cookies are so delicious. I cannot eat just one! I used lemon juice because I didn't have lemon extract. The flavor is just right. I shared some of the cookies with a friend, and she said, "They didn't last long!" I'm taking these to a cookie/recipe exchange, and I know they will be a big hit!

yum! As I get older, I like lemon flavor more and more. These cookies are so easy to make, very quick to whip up and the lemon flavor is light. So, if you really like lemon flavor you might add more than a teaspoon.

i liked these but i didn't have all the ingredients. i substitued lemon peel for the extract and used vanilla extract. i also used butter flavored crisco, less oil and flour to make them more of a drop cookie. i really like them and would make them again.
