What to Do
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until creamy. Beat in egg, lemon extract, and lemon zest.
- In a medium bowl, mix together 3 cups flour, the baking powder, and salt; gradually beat into butter mixture.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1/2 the dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut out circles and place on baking sheet. Re-roll dough scraps and cut out additional cookies. Repeat with remaining dough. Bake 9 to 12 minutes or until the edges are light golden. Let cool 5 minutes then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
- Place coconut in a shallow dish. Spread frosting evenly on each cookie and dip into coconut, pressing gently to stick. Decorate cookies with candy decorations as seen in picture. Store in air tight container.
