Lemon-Cinnamon Cookies

Directions

Preheat oven to 375℉ (190℃).

In a very large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking ammonia and salt.

Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal.

Add the eggs and lemon peel; mix well to form a dough.

On a floured surface, roll out the dough to ⅛ inch thickness.

Cut into shapes with 2-3-inch cookie cutters.

Place the cutouts on ungreased cookie sheets.

Combine the egg white and water; brush over the tops of the cookies.

Sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden.

Remove to a wire rack to cool. Drizzle with melted chocolate, if you like.
