Not only is this recipe easy to follow, but they are the best lemon cookies i've ever made! I do agree with previous reviewers, however. This cookie does have a cake like texture. Nothing like the texture "regular" cookie. But i think that's what makes it so great. Its so light and airy and the frosting tastes great...just dont use too much of the frosting, it is VERY lemony. Also, they freeze great. I double the batch and freeze half of it. And i pull them out if i know im having last min. guests!

This recipe was so refreshing from the everyday cookie recipe.
My mother in law is not well and doesn't eat much, but she gobbled
down almost the whole batch of these cookies.
Thank you for such a refreshing recipe! My daughter and I enjoy
making many of your recipes, it is a nice break from the every day
"American/Country" food we were brought up with.

i made these twice in a span of a week - my first attempt, i followed the recipe to a T, right down to spooning 2 tbsp of batter per cookie. i got MAX 24 cookies out of that batch, but they were FAB.

on my next attempt, i scooped a heaping tsp of batter, and got over 60 cookies! i was baking and glazing like a fiend for 2 hours!!!

FABULOUS recipe, such a light and breezy crowd pleaser. definitely my signature recipe of the week!!

I made these for a birthday party at work, and everyone just loved them! I wouldn't change anything about the recipe except maybe make a little bit more of the icing. I was worried that the ricotta would cause the consistency to be a little strange, but it was great! The cookies were cake-like but didn't fall apart! I will definitely make these again! Great recipe!

I am 12 years old and I like to cook. I went to a big summercamp event with around 300 people attending. I made these cookies and everyone loved them. I had every single recipe in my pantry (except for the ricotta and it wasn't too expensive. I had to make many batches so i doubled the ingredients and it turned out fine. The event was 2 hours long, but the cookies only lasted for 20 minutes. Your recipes are so simple and so easy, but they taste great.

Wow! I love the BURST of lemon flavor that the lemon glaze gives these moist, cake-like cookies. Wonderfully tender, bite after bite. These cookies were easy to make and even easier to eat! My family thoroughly enjoyed them and asked for the recipe. As others have mentioned, they do spread a bit in the oven so be sure to allow room for this. I fit 9-10 on a standard-size cookie sheet without a problem.

W-O-W. The lemon glazing makes the cookie! Add extra lemon to the confectioner's sugar until you get the consistency how you like it. 3 T was not quite enough lemon juice for me.

Easy-to-make cookies that are guaranteed to impress your friends...and disappear!!

Oh, don't skimp on using parchment paper; they'll get a little burned on the bottom if you don't!

This is an amazing "adult" cookie and a nice change from the typical chocolate chip I usually make. I did make one change - Lemon juice and zest in the cookie, but lime juice and zest in the icing. Created a very refreshing lemon lime flavor, perfect for summer entertaining.

I too seen this recipe in a magazine and copied it immediatlly. They are delish! Moist, cake like. The fresh lemon juice and zest give it the taste of a light lemon. Not over powering. The only thing I did different is baked for 12 minutes, not the 15 min. that was stated. I also used fresh ricotta.....just happened to be at an Italian grocery store and remembered the recipe. Will defintely make again!
