Chewy Lemon Crinkle Cookies

The lemon essential oil or extract is optional, but I love to add lemon essential oil to make the lemon really stand out!
2. We love cookie plates!
Mini plates are one of the things we added to our shop right from the beginning! These darling little plates are so versatile. We use them for bread plates, muffins, brownies, chocolate budino in a cup, and of course, cookies. They are also great as saucers for plants, candles…so many things! We have a few options to choose from; you can see them in the “Everyday” section in the shop!
Annie I love lemon crinkle cookies and have to try your recipe! We Californians need this with all our lemons. Alex Mills shirts are lovely! I love your olive one.
Annie, your cookies and cookie plates look delicious and so cute! I had no idea that you could do so much with lemon oil! I will have to use mine.
I have seen Walking in NY on several blogs and now here, I think that is a sign that might need to order it.
Have a wonderful week and enjoy the rest of the holiday weekend.
