Lemon Egg Yolk Biscuit
A one bowl baking recipe. I love to use this recipe when I have yolk leftovers for doing a pavlova or angel cake, and nothing is a waste n this house.
Ingredients
1 cup of butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
6 egg yolks
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoon lemon zest
sugar to roll cookies
Instructions
- Preheat oven a 180ºC. Grease some baking sheets or put parchment paper over the baking tray.
- Mix in a bowl cream the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the egg yolks to the butter mixture. Blend well. Incorporate the lemon juice, vanilla and zest mixing well.
- Sift the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda and cream of tartar) over the mixture and blend well.
- Form balls of 1 tablespoon more or less. Roll them over sugar and put them on the baking tray. Slightly flatten them with your hand and bake them for 10-12 minutes or until golden.
Notes
You can substitute the lemon for lime or other citrus fruit.
