INGREDIENTS

  • Cookie Dough

    • 🧂 1 ¼ cups white sugar
    • 🧈 ¾ cup salted butter, softened
    • ¼ cup vegetable oil
    • 🥚 3 egg yolks
    • 🍋 3 tablespoons lemon zest
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • ½ teaspoon cream of tartar

  • Cinnamon-Sugar Coating

    • 🧂 2 tablespoons white sugar

STEPS

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease 2 cookie sheets and set aside.

2

Beat 1 1/4 cups sugar, butter, and oil together until creamy. Beat in the egg yolks, lemon zest, and vanilla extract.

3

Combine flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar in a separate bowl. Sift until mixed. Gradually add it to the butter mixture in 2 batches, stirring until just combined.

4

Mix sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg together. Shape dough into walnut-sized balls and roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

5

Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden. Cool for 2-3 minutes on the baking sheets before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
