These lemon crescents are bursting of lemon flavor as they contain lemon zest in the dough as well as in the sugar dusting. They are a relative of the famous German vanilla crescents especially popular during Christmas time. I am already starting my Christmas cookie baking and I am going to publish a total of seven cookie recipes and some more articles dealing with typical problems. Usually people already know which Christmas cookies they are going to bake every year, maybe this one will also go on the list. I intentially am going to introduce not the traditional Christmas cookies here, but more unusual ones, such as these lemon crescents. As far as I understand, people like to stick to their list, but are open to try one or two new cookie recipes. So let’s get started.
