Ingredients

  • teaspoons double-acting baking powder 
  • large eggs 
  • 2.8 cups flour all-purpose
  • tablespoon lemon extract 
  • tablespoons juice of lemon fresh divided
  • tablespoon lemon zest grated
  • 0.7 cup powdered sugar 
  • cup sugar 
  • tablespoon vegetable oil 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking sheet
  • oven
  • knife
  • wire rack
  • measuring cup

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 35
  2. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.
  3. Combine flour, sugar, and baking powder in a large bowl.
  4. Combine rind, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, extract, oil, and eggs, and add to flour mixture, stirring until well-blended (dough will be dry and crumbly). Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 7 to 8 times. Divide dough in half. Shape each portion into an 8-inch-long roll.
  5. Place rolls 6 inches apart on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; flatten each roll to 1-inch thickness.
  6. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
  7. Remove the rolls from baking sheet; cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack.
  8. Cut each roll diagonally into 15 (1/2-inch) slices.
  9. Place the slices, cut sides down, on baking sheet. Reduce oven temperature to 325; bake for 10 minutes. Turn cookies over; bake an additional 10 minutes (the cookies will be slightly soft in center but will harden as they cool).
  10. Remove from baking sheet, and cool completely on wire rack.
  11. Combine 1 tablespoon lemon juice and powdered sugar, and drizzle over the biscotti.
