It’s like a magic trick to pull a can of lemonade out of the freezer and say to the kids, “Do you think we can make this lemonade into cookies?” If you want to make the cookie dough ahead of time, it can be refrigerated for several days if you seal it in two layers of plastic wrap. Dough straight from the refrigerator should bake for about 12 minutes; dough at room temperature bakes in 8-10 minutes.
Ingredients:
- 1 6-oz can of frozen lemonade concentrate
- ½ lb unsalted butter (2 sticks) (softened)
- 1 cup sugar (plus extra to sprinkle over the cookies)
- 2 tsp lemon zest (finely grated)
- 2 large eggs
- 2½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/8 tsp salt
