Yum! These cookies are very tasty and easy to make, and not a huge batch.

Recipe below contains my modifications.
Ingredients:
300g (2 1/2 c.) all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1 1/2 sticks (12 T.) butter, softened
3/4 c. sugar, plus more for rolling/coating
1/4 c. brown sugar, packed
zest of 2 medium lemons
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
3 T. lemon juice
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and kosher salt. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, beat together the butter, sugar, brown sugar, and lemon zest, using an electric hand mixer.
3. Beat in the egg and egg yolk, then the lemon juice.
4. Gradually mix in the reserved dry ingredients mixture, until just combined.
5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight (I went overnight).
6. Once dough has chilled, heat oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment.
7. Form dough into large balls (around 3 T./walnut size), then roll in sugar to coat. Place balls at least 2" apart on prepared cookie sheets.
8. Bake for 12-14 minutes (I went close to 14), or until edges are slightly brown and middles are still soft. After removing from the oven, leave on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to baking rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
