Glazed Lemon Crinkle Cookies

I have long been in search of the perfect lemon crinkle cookie.  I guess I must be a real fan of lemon, because none of the recipes I tried were lemony enough to satisfy me.  So, finally, I developed my own.  Due to the drizzle of glaze on the top of these lemon cookies, they are a bit different than a classic crinkle cookie, but I like that about them.  I think the lemon drizzle dresses them up a bit and makes them fun. 

While the cookies themselves have a hint of lemon, what finally made them satisfy my lemon-craving heart was the addition of the lemon glaze that is drizzled on the top.  These cookies are made with fresh lemon juice and they are tender and a bit chewy with the perfect lemon punch from the lemon glaze.  To me, these are the perfect lemon crinkle cookie.

I hope you give these delicious lemon crinkle cookies with a lemon glaze a try.  If you love lemon, I think you will enjoy them.
