Ingredients

- All-Purpose Flour - Unsalted Butter - Lemon Zest - Granulated Sugar - Poppy Seeds

Place the all-purpose flour, kosher salt, baking soda, and baking powder in a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Set the flour mixture aside.

Step 1

Zest the lemons directly into the sugar. Zesting the lemons directly into the sugar ensure that the oils and moisture in the skin of the lemon are captured.

Step 2

Mix the lemon zest into the sugar with your fingers until the sugar turns yellow. The sugar will clump up and your kitchen will start to smell like lemon.

Step 3

Cream the lemon-sugar and the butter with the paddle attachment of an electric stand mixer. Creaming is an important step to introduce air into the cookie dough which will help the cookies rise.
