Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Lemon Sour Cream Cookies Delight.
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two cookie sheets.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter using an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Gradually add the sugar, continuing to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Step 4
Mix in the sour cream, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and optional lemon extract until fully incorporated.
Step 5
Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cookies are set and the edges are lightly golden. Allow them to cool on the sheets for 1 minute before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
