Ingredients
  

  • 2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoon lemon zest

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and line a cookie sheet with parchment.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar, until fluffy.
