2 tablespoons grand marnier or limoncello |
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon zest |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
4 large eggs |
Directions:
1. Mix together flour, baking powder, pepper and salt.
2. Beat butter and sugar together until fluffy.
3. Beat in Grand Marnier/limoncello, vanilla extract and lemon zest
4. Beat in the eggs.
5. Combine the egg mixture with the flour mixture.
6. Form dough into two balls, wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
7. Line a baking sheet with greased waxed paper.
8. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
9. Remove dough balls from refrigerator.
10. Make each ball into a 12x2 log.
11. Place on prepared cookie sheet.
12. Bake for 40 minutes OR until they test done.
13. Remove from oven.
14. Cool five minutes.
15. Reduce oven heat to 325 degrees F.
