You can leave them plain (they&#8217;re buttery soft, with a tangy lemon flavor just as they are), or add a lemon or vanilla glaze once cooled.

I used Lemonheads candy for the lemon drops. Try looking for them in your local dollar store which seems to have a large selection of candy. That is where I found mine. Some reviewers had trouble with these cookies so I will share my secrets to a great cookie: first USE PARCHMENT PAPER!!! I cannot say that enough! The recipe says to \"grease\" a cookie sheet...there isn't enough grease in the world that will prevent these cookies from sticking! Use parchment paper, and they will slide off your pan easily. Next, to get the candies the right size, first put them in a freezer-safe (it's thicker) zip lock bag. Smash them with a hammer. The candies actually cut through the bag. Once half smashed, put them in a food processor and pulverize them. I used the zest of one lemon for a double recipe along with the juice of half a lemon. It really added to the flavor. After baking, leave the cookies cool for about 2 minutes on the pan then transfer to a wire cooling rack that is COVERED WITH PARCHMENT PAPER. Do NOT put the cookies directly on the wire rack; they will stick. I even tried wax paper. The cookies stuck to the wax paper! Parchment is the way to go. Once I put that down, they slid off the pan and easily slid off the cooling rack. The cookies taste great and I will definitely make them again, but parchment paper is the key to a successful recipe.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2015-12-17","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"marlio"},"reviewBody":"I tripled the recipe but only had a cup of crushed lemon drops so I added a half cup of Country Time dry Lemonade mix.
