Description

These citrus cookies are a delight for any time of day. The combination of lemon and orange gives them a fresh and vibrant flavor that makes them irresistible. The recipe is very simple and perfect to make with children. I often prepare them for breakfast or snack, and they are always a success. The dough is soft and easy to work with, and the aroma they give off when baked is simply wonderful. Also, they keep well for several days in an airtight container. Go ahead and try them, you will love them! They are ideal to accompany a coffee or tea, or simply to enjoy alone. The zest of the citrus fruits intensifies the flavor and aroma, making these cookies a unique experience.
