Lemon Meltaways

I love the texture of these little shortbreads, however I wish I had added a little more lemon juice/zest than I did. I added about 3 T. juice and 2 T. zest and even with that I wanted more zing. That said I will definitely be making these again with more lemon juice/zest or extract.

A cross between sugar cookies and shortbread, these are delicious and easy, but I wish the lemon flavor were a bit more intense. I had a yield of 12 large (three ounce) cookies. I want to try these with orange rind and juice.
