Bright lemon zest and pure butter meet in this tender shortbread, creating a delicate cookie with a sunny lift and a fine, dusting of confectioner’s sugar. The rich dough is lightly sweetened and kissed with citrus, then shaped into crumbly rounds that hint at elegance and whimsy. It’s the kind of cookie that melts on the tongue but leaves a zing on the memory. Cut in wedges; in batches of eight.
