I do a similar cookie, lemon pecan dainties.
2/3 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 T grated lemon peel
1T fresh lemon juice ( can use bottle) fresh taste better
2 cups sifted flour
1 t baking powder
1/2 t salt
1 cup chopped pecans
Cream butter and sugar; add egg, lemon peel, and lemon juice; beat well. Sift dry ingredients; add to creamed mixture; mix well. Sitr in nuts.
Shape in rolls 2 inches across. Chill thoroughly. Slice very thin. Bake on greased cookie sheet at 350 degrees 12 to 15 minutes. Cool slightly before removing from pan. Makes 5 dozen cookies.
You don't have to make two rolls you can make one long one if you want. The real key is to slice them very thin but still with a bit of substance. They are melt in your mouth good!
