great for Easter.
Ingredients
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
3 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons water
Red and yellow food coloring
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl; set aside. Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a mixer on medium high until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg. Alternately add the flour mixture, vanilla, and buttermilk, ending with the flour. Stir in lemon zest.
Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto cookie sheets. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until cookies are lightly golden. Cool completely on a wire rack.
For glaze, combine powdered sugar, corn syrup, lemon juice, and water; mix until smooth. Spoon half the glaze into a second bowl and stir in 2 to 3 drops red food coloring to tint pink. Mix 3 to 4 drops yellow food coloring in first bowl.
Turn cookies flat side up. Top with glazes using a spreader or a pastry bag. Let dry 30 minutes before storing.
