How do I make lemon cookies?

Lemon Poppy Seed Cookies

2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1-1/2 tsp freshly grated lemon zest
1 tsp ground coriander
2 Tbsp poppy seeds
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 egg yolks
1 whole egg
1-1/2 tsp lemon extract

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.

In a medium bowl combine flour, baking soda, lemon zest, coriander and poppy seeds. Mix well and set aside.

In a large bowl cream butter and sugar with electric mixer at medium speed until mixture forms a grainy paste. Scrape down sides of bowl, then add egg yolks, egg and lemon extract. Beat at medium speed until light and fluffy.

Add the flour mixture and mix at low speed just until combined. Do not over mix.

Drop by rounded tablespoons onto greased cookie sheets, 2" apart. Bake for 23-25 minutes until cookies are slightly brown along edges. Immediately transfer cookies to a cooling rack.
