Luscious Lemon Snaps

Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups white sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 2 tablespoons lemon zest
• 0.75 cups vegetable oil
• 0.5 cups fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F ( 175 degrees C ). Grease cookie sheets.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest. Make a well in the center and fill it with the oil, lemon juice, and vanilla. Stir everything together until it forms a dough. Alternate method: Put everything into the food processor and blend until dough forms.

3. 3

   Drop cookie dough by teaspoonfuls, about 2 inches apart, onto the prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven. Edges should be golden brown. For a softer cookie, bake for only 7 minutes. Cool on racks, and store in an airtight container.
