Lemon sugar cookies

Inspired by Martha's giant sugar cookies, I made these: lemon sugar cookies. Basically the same recipe except I added the zest and juice from one lemon. They turned out really well! Chewy, fluffy, sugary and lemony. I used an ice cream scoop that resulted in equally round cookies. I think next time I will use less flour, the recipe calls for 2 cups, I would use 1 1/2 cups instead for a more dense/chewy/buttery cookie. Josh really liked them too, he even closed his eyes while eating them which means they are really good.
