Lemon Cookies
½ cup of dairy-free buttery spread or stick (I used an Earth Balance Soy Free stick)

¾ cup of sugar
⅓ cup of plain dairy-free milk beverage

Instructions
Lemon Cookies
1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
2. Put the buttery spread or sticks in a big mixing bowl and beat with a hand mixer on medium-high for around 30 seconds. Put 1 cup of flour, sugar, milk beverage, egg replacer, 2 teaspoons lemon juice, baking powder, lemon zest, and baking soda. Blend until thoroughly combined. Add the remaining ¾ cup flour, and stir to mix.
3. Drop the dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto your prepared cookie sheets, approximately 2 inches apart. Bake for around 10 min or until the edges are lightly browned.
4. And let cookies cool for Around 3 minutes on the baking sheet, and then remove them to a wire rack to cool entirely.
Lemon Glaze
