How To Make lenguas de gato (cat's tongue cookies)

• Step 1
  Preheat oven to 350F.
• Step 2
  Cream the butter until light colored and fluffy. Add the sugar, vanilla and zest. Continue beating for 1 minute.
• Step 3
  Add the egg whites and beat until the mixture is very light in texture. Gradually add the flour and salt.
• Step 4
  Scoop the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4 inch round tip (#11 or #12). Pipe dough onto a greased cookie sheet in 2 1/2 inch lengths. Leave space between cookies, as they will spread while baking.
• Step 5
  Bake for 5 minutes, or until the cookies are very lightly browned on the edges. Watch carefully, as they burn easily. Remove them IMMEDIATELY from the pan and let cool on a rack.
