Prep. Time:

:30

Total Time:

2:30

Ingredients:

1 tbsp. dried lavender
1 cup butter or margarine
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. lemon flavoring (opt)
2 cups all purpose flour
1 pinch of salt
1/4 cup milk
Extra sugar

Directions:

If you have a mortar and pestle, grind the lavender with the sugar to spread the flavor. If not, just combine.
Add butter, cream together with a fork. Cream in extracts and salt. Mix in flour gradually.

Refridgerate 2 hours, or untill well chilld through. Note: sitting too long will make the dough too sticky, and the cookies hard.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Roll dough to about 1/4 inch and cut to desired shape/size. For a crunchy top, smear cookies with milk using your finger and sprinkle with sugar (or lavender sugar!) before baking.
Bake 12-15 minutes, until lightly brown.

Comments from kazeryuujin :

Lightly sweet, crisp cookies for tea or finger snacks. Using a shot glass as a cookie cutter makes the perfect dipping size.
