2 1/4 cups flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
2/3 cup Crisco shortening
1 cup white sugar
1 egg + 1 egg yolk
2 TBSP lemon juice

Into a bowl sift flour, baking powder and salt--once sifted, sift the mixture again. In a mixer add Crisco and white sugar--beat. Add 1 egg and 1 egg yolk--beat. Add lemon juice and lemon zest--beat. Slowly add flour mixture--beat. Refrigerate the dough overnight. The next day remove dough from refrigerator--flour your counter, place a baseball sized piece of dough on the flour, and flour the top of the dough (refrigerate remaining dough until you need more). Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough 1/8" thick. Cut cookies with a round cookie cutter. Repeat with all dough. Place cookies on to greased cookie sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes. Cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
