Lemon Snowball Cookies.

I made these as an accompaniment to a desert wine.

cookies
2 sticks of butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon extract
2 tablespoons lemon zest
2 cups flour

coating
2/3 cup icing sugar
3 single serve packages of crystal light lemonade

Cream butter and sugar, add flavourings, mix well.
Add flour in 2 stages, mix well.
When combined roll into 1/2 teaspoon balls.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 10 minutes, or until they are firm to the touch. The will not brown. They don't spread much.

While the first batch is baking mix the coating, then roll the hot cookies in the coating.

They are tangy cookies! Great with a desert wine that you would want to highlight, as they are not sweeter than the wine.
