Notes and Tips
The Lemon Meltaways are fairly large cookies, so if you plan on gifting them, I recommend making a double batch.
For a touch of indulgence, you can also top the cookies with this “Lemon Frosting“:
7.75 oz of vanilla powdered sugar
2.8 oz of Philadelphia
1.76 oz of soft butter
1 teaspoon of lemon zest
Preparation:
Beat the cheese with the butter until they become a soft and homogeneous cream. Then add the powdered sugar and lemon zest. Spread the frosting on the cold cookies.
Shopping Tips!!!
To weigh the ingredients, I use this handy Digital kitchen scale, with a large removable bowl, tare function, and built-in timer, available on Amazon at a great price. #adv
For perfect kneading and dough handling, I use my Titanium Chef Patissier XL stand mixer with EasyWarm 7L bowl, integrated scale, and blender, a reliable kitchen ally for: kneading, weighing, whipping, cooking, chopping, and pasteurizing eggs.
You can find this stand mixer on Amazon at a special price, click HERE !
If instead, you’re looking for a more economical and smaller stand mixer model with a 4-liter bowl, you can safely choose to purchase the Kenwood KVC7300S Chef Titanium Stand Mixer, with built-in lighting and included rubber whisk and pastry spatula. #adv
To bake the cookies, this Masterclass perforated baking tray is ideal, alone or combined with this silicone perforated mat.#adv
