Whip up zesty lemon cookies with a unique touch using a carrot cookie press for a delightful snacking experience.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
  • 2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • Large carrots
  • Additional sugar
Instructions:
  • Combine butter and cream cheese in a large bowl until well mixed. Add 1/2 cup of sugar and lemon peel, then gradually mix in the flour. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 2 hours until firm. Prepare the Carrot Press.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten them to about 1/4-inch thickness using a Carrot Press dipped in sugar. Bake for 7 to 9 minutes until set but not browned. Transfer the cookies from the sheet to a wire rack to cool. To make the Carrot Press, cut a 1 1/2-inch-diameter carrot into 2-inch lengths. Carve a decorative design about 1/8 inch deep on the cut end using a small, sharp knife, the tip of a vegetable peeler, or another small, sharp kitchen tool.
