Notes
Helpful Recipe Tips
Be mindful of the type of granulated sweetener you use. I say this because some sweeteners produce an aftertaste. So, to avoid that strong cooling effect mainly cause by erythritol I suggest allulose or a monk fruit sweetener.
I use vanilla extract and lemon extract to boost the lemon flavor but to also calm down the artificial taste. Using a teaspoon of lemon extract will make a very strong artificial taste, but some don't mind that.
Zest the entire lemon and make sure not to go too far down to prevent the bitter flavor. If you don't have a lemon you can skip this but it brings a true lemon essence
For thick and chewy cookies don't flatten cookies too much when you press them down
