Ingredients

• • ½ cup powdered sugar
• • 1 tablespoon dried lavender
• • zest of one lemon
• • 1 cup (two sticks) butter, room temperature
• • 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
• • ¼ teaspoon salt

Directions

• In a large bowl, mix the powdered sugar, dried lavender, and lemon zest until the lavender and lemon zest are well incorporated. Add softened butter to the bowl. Use a hand mixer to cream with the sugar. Add flour and salt slowly, mixing gently to combine.
• Remove the dough from the bowl onto a large piece of parchment or wax paper. Gently roll the paper around the dough to create a smooth 8-inch log. Chill dough at least 3 hours or up to a few days.
• When ready to bake, heat the oven to 375º. Slice the chilled dough into ¼-inch slices. Bake 13-15 minutes. Remove from oven and cool before serving.
