Citrus Cookies

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 F.

2. 2

   Zest all the citrus into a small bowl and mix to combine. Remove about 2 teaspoons of the zest mixture and place in a separate bowl. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar to the 2 teaspoons of zest. Combine with a fork and set aside.

3. 3

   In a mixing bowl, add butter and remaining 1 cup sugar. Beat for 1-2 minutes. Add egg and beat until combined. Add flour, baking powder and baking soda. Beat until combined. Slowly add in the bowl of zest (not the one with the sugar in it).

4. 4

   Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll cookie dough into 3/4-1 inch sized balls. Then roll them in the sugar/zest mixture, coating generously. Place balls on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet, leaving about 2 inches in between. Repeat until you've used all of the dough. Using the flat bottom of a cup, press the balls slightly to form a disc. I then pressed a little extra sugar on the tops of the cookies at this point (totally optional).

5. 5

   Bake in a 350 F oven for 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack. Store in a covered container for up to a week. Enjoy.
