This is a fun recipe that I made up from a couple of other recipes. It is a tart yet sweet, soft sugar cookie! The lemonade frosting is what puts it over the top!
It is perfect for those hot summer days. Light and refreshing! And they are pretty with the yellow edible glitter!
Frosted Lemonade Cookies
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
3 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1-12 oz can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed and divided
Frosting
3 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoon butter softened
Frozen lemonade concentrate ,thawed
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time and mix well. In a separate bowl, combine flour and baking soda. Add 1/2 of dry mixture to creamed mixture and alternate with 1/3 cup lemonade concentrate. Repeat and mix well after each addition.
Scoop dough in small ice cream scoop and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. These spread out a bit so give them room to bake. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 8-10 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool. Once cooled mix powdered sugar and butter and add frozen lemonade concentrate 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency of frosting. Spread cookies with the frosting and sprinkle with your favorite sprinkles! Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
Oh so pretty!
And they are so light and refreshing, that you can’t eat just one! I dare you!
This is so pretty and it sounds packed with lemon flavor. Please share this on my foodie friday party today.
