Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1½ cups sugar, divided
• ¾ cup powdered sugar
• ¾ cup vegetable oil
• 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 Tablespoons lemon zest
• 2 eggs
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon cream of tarter
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 5½ cups flour
• ¾ cup butter, softened
• 4 cups powdered sugar
• ⅓ cup sour cream
• ⅓ cup strawberries, chopped

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, cream butter, 1 cup of sugar and the powdered sugar. Add vegetable oil, lemon juice, lemon zest and eggs and mix well.
• In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients. Add to wet ingredients and mix until well incorporated.
• Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on cookie sheet.
• On a large plate, spread ¼ c of sugar. Find a smooth bottomed glass and press it into the sugar to coat the bottom of the glass in sugar. Then press the sugar-coated-glass into the cookie dough balls and lightly press down until your dough begins to flatten and the edges around the glass begin to split.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes. Cool cookies on a cooling rack and then put them in the fridge until you are ready to frost them.
• Combine butter, powdered sugar, and sour cream in a medium mixing bowl and beat until smooth. Add strawberries and mix until just blended. Frost cookies when you are ready to serve.
