These are really tasty, but the proportions in the filling are WAY off. Made exactly by the recipe, it was like a very thin soup! I dumped in another cup or more of powdered sugar–all I had in the house–and it’s still too thin. I spread it on a few cookies, but it just flows out the sides and the cookie on top slithers off sideways. I’ll go back to the store tomorrow and get more powdered sugar and try to salvage them. Next time I will start with juice from half a lemon only, and 1-1/2 cups of powdered sugar–and have more on hand, just in case.

My cookies were dry and crumbly. Did I dry them out by leaving on the sheet after baking? Or is at how they are supposed to be? Otherwise very yummy!

I made these & they turned out exquisite! I was so delighted. I followed the directions to a T (even though I had to Google conversions for Celsius to Fahrenheit and Grams to Tablespoons for my American brain)! The texture and flavor could not have been better. Thank you so much for posting! I will definitely be making them again!

I love the idea of lemos cookies…unfortunately, in Mexico, it is impossible to find lemons so I substituted it for limes. hmmm….They are in the oven as I type this!

This is a fantastic recipe. I tried it over the weekend and it turned out perfectly – with any recipe like this though, I am always careful to make sure not to overcook. My oven is a bit on the older side and that can lead me to problems if I don’t keep an eye on things!

I’m not quite sure what I did wrong… The cookies taste great, but they thinned out when I cooked them… much, much thinner than shown in the photos. Perhaps I didn’t cook them long enough. I took the first batch out of the over after only 12 minutes because the edges started to brown. S ubsequent batches were baked for only 10 minutes to avoid browing. They’re so fragile that they disintigrate when I try to pick them up to ice them after they’ve cooled, leaving me with a pile of delicious crumbs.

Hi again! I’m planning on making these cookies a second time and looking at the measurements, I can’t remember how much butter I used (I don’t have a scale to find out how many grams). About how many tablespoons is 200 grams and 50 grams? I’m coming up with weird numbers when I try and use the online converters. These cookies were a big hit the first time I made them and I’m planning on bringing them to a cookie swap tomorrow!

These look soooo good! Maybe I should make cookies a bit bigger and make lemon ice cream…yummy lemon ice cream sandwiches! Or maybe fill with lemon curd? After I try the original recipe, of course! Can’t wait!
