* This recipe makes about 70 cookies, you have to divide the recipe in two, so you can add lemon or orange....obviously =)
1. Beat in half of the butter, orange or lemon zest, sugar and salt, until smooth (the half of everything). Add the 2 eggs one by one, without stop beating. Then add orange/lemon juice and incorporate the sifted flour carefully.
2. Knead the dough until it is ready to stretch....use more flour if needed.
3. Cut 1/2" circles and put in greased baking pan...bake at 375ºF for about 8 minutes.
4. Prepare the glaze: Mix icing sugar with lemon or orange juice and then add food coloring until you get the wanted tone.
5. Have fun painting your cookies!
