Add remaining ingredients and mix well.

Roll Cookies into 1 inch balls and place on greased cookie sheet (or parchment paper).

Remove from oven and press down and flatten the cookie with a glass.

Place back in oven for 1-2 minutes.

Cookies are done when top starts to crack. Edges may be slightly browned.

Let cool completely.

Make the icing. Place about a cup of powdered sugar in a bowl, slowly add some lemon juice until you have the consistency you want.

Add food coloring if desired.

Gently spoon frosting onto cookies with the back of a spoon…these cookies are very delicate and a little crumbly so handle with care.

Sprinkle with lemon zest if desired.
