LEMON COOKIES

Lemon Cookies image

I invented this recipe just after my 14th birthday. I made them for my dad because he loves lemon desserts. If you really love lemon flavor, I advise you add more lemon extract because the flavor bakes out rather than in. The extra teaspoon of milk is only if you want thinner dough, but I usually omit the milk.
