Summer, how I love summer. I love how fresh, clean and simple this season is. Maybe it’s because I am a summer baby myself (thanks Mom!). I love how everything takes less effort – no boots or mitts. Simple meals. Just get up and go.
I love the longer days and sunshine. The beautiful surgance of flowers – and of course the symphony of music from the birds.
Keeping with simple and fresh, I have a simple but delicious cookie recipe to share with you – Lemon Cherry Shortbread Cookies. I love making these in the summer! You just have to try them for yourself! Here’s what you’ll need:
Lemon Cherry Shortbreads
- 1 cup butter
- 2 cups flour
- ½ cup + 1 tbsp. icing sugar
- Dash of salt
- Zest of 1 lemon
- ¾ cup of chopped dried cherries
- Mix all the ingredients together in your mixer
- Roll into a log shape, on parchment paper and chill
- Slice into ½ inch portions and bake at 350 degrees for about 8-10 minutes
- Cool on cooking rack then dust with icing sugar
Now the best part – enjoy!
