These lemon meltaway cookies are crunchy, sweet and melt in your mouth as you eat them. The cookies are easy to make and don’t require any flour or eggs. They store well and can be made ahead of time for a party or gifting.
I love making meltaway cookies. These little round morsels are so cute and make a nice sweet treat. This lemon version is my new favorite one. The lemon adds so much flavor and it reminds me a little of eating lemon bars.
Ingredients:
- Lemon Juice and Zest

WHAT ARE LEMON MELTAWAY COOKIES?
These meltaway cookies are a lemon flavored version of sequilhos (Brazilian cornstarch cookies). I explain more in my 3 Ingredient meltaway cookies recipe. My version is slightly different from the traditional ones in that I use less cornstarch so the cookies are a little less starchy and a little more like shortbread.
