ROLLED in LEMON SUGAR, These cookies are made much like Snickerdoodles. As they are Rolled in LEMON SUGAR, then fattened and Baked. These are very easy to make and Are Giant sized. If you like you can make smaller cookies, but Remember to adjust your baking time as well. These start to turn a Slight golden brn around the edges when baking. a great cookie with tea, or anytime. Sorry no photo today, My Camera bit the dust. But will post soon as I can get another.
