Shortbread:
3/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
3/4 teaspoon lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon lemon juice
Glaze:
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 tablespoons dried lavender flowers
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon Meyer lemon juice, or as needed

1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2
Beat butter, 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar, white sugar, lemon zest, and salt together in a bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy. Gradually sift flour into batter, stirring in each addition; add 3/4 teaspoon lemon juice. Gently knead until dough holds together. Press dough into an 8x8-inch pan.
3
Bake in the preheated oven until shortbread is lightly browned around the edges, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool in pan to lukewarm temperature and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
4
Warm milk in a saucepan over medium heat; cook, stirring constantly, until milk begin to boil. Remove from heat and add lavender flowers. Cover pan and steep until fragrant, 6 to 10 minutes. Strain and discard flowers. Gradually whisk 1 cup confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, alternating with 1 tablespoon Meyer lemon juice, until glaze is smooth and opaque. Spread over cooled shortbread. Refrigerate to allow glaze to harden, about 30 minutes.
