Lemon Drop Cookies

Okay you guys!  These cookies are perfect!  Soft and chewy!  Tart yet sweet!  You won't be able to eat just one or two OR THREE!  Three words:  You Are Welcome!!!!!

The line up:

Cream together:

1 stick butter

Zest of 1 lime and 1 lemon

2/3 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup agave nectar or honey(or just use another 1/4 cup sugar

Add and mix in:

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 tablespoon lemon juice 

Add and mix in:

1 3/4 cups flour

A pinch a salt

Form dough into 1 inch balls and place on a cookie sheet.  Into a 325 degree oven for 10-11 minutes.

Once out of the oven and onto cooling racks make the glaze:

Juice of 1 lemon

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Roughly 1 1/2-2 cups powdered sugar(or as much as you need to get a nice drizzly consistency!  I added the powdered sugar a little at a time and mixed with a whisk to avoid lumps.)

Drizzle tart glaze over cookies and enjoy!
