Lemon Lavender Cookies

These Lemon Lavender Cookies are bright from fresh lemon zest and fragrant from dried lavender, finished with a glossy lemon glaze that’s just sweet enough.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 24 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • Zest of 1 Lemon
  • 1 tablespoon Dried culinary lavender
  • 1 cup Powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment or a silicone mat.
  2. Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, lemon zest, and dried lavender.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto a lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
  8. While the cookies cool, make the glaze by combining powdered sugar, lemon juice, and a pinch of dried lavender.
  9. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies and garnish with additional lavender if desired.

Notes

Let glaze set for at least 10–15 minutes before stacking. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
