Lemon Curd Cookies

Remember last week I made a batch of Lemon curd and I was planning to bake something with it like a cake with lemon curd filling or a tart.

Unfortunately I managed to sneak out only quarter cup from the hungry husband who was using lemon curd as a dip for anything and everything..

Quarter cup is hardly enough for anything on my list so I chose to go with the cookies..

You are going to love this one.. When you bit into the cookies..The sour tangy n lightly sweet filling awaits uJJ

I have a few in my mouth when I am writing thisJ

Lemon Curd Cookies

Ingredients

200 gms All purpose flour

1 tblspn Rice flour

50 gms Icing Sugar

150 gms butter

1 tspn Vanilla extract

3-4 tablespoon Lemon Curd [You can use Jam instead as well]

Directions

Pre-heat the oven to 160 Degree Celsius

In a bowl beat the butter, until light and fluffy

Sift together the dry ingredients, flours, sugar to the butter. Add in the vanilla extract

Using a fork stir together until the mixture has combined to form soft dough.

If the dough is not holding together, you can add a tablespoon of milk.

Take tbspn of dough, roll it into a ball. Flatten gently and place it on the baking tray.

Using the backside of a tea spoon , poke gently on the cookie so that there is a small dip in the center of the cookie.

Fill the dip with the filling of your choice

Bake for 25 minutes until the cookies are slightly brown around the edges

Leave to cool on a wire rack

Tips:

If you have an oven fan, switch it on during the last 5 minutes , your cookies will be more crispier

Adding a tbspn of rice flour to the butter cookie batter, this will make your cookies crunchier.

I prefer to fill the cookies with a small piping bag. You can use a small zipper bag , as it is more easier and prettier
