10. Bake 12 to 15 minutes - until just a touch of brown on edges. Set to cool completely
ICING
sift icing sugar into bowl. Stir in 2/12 teaspoons of lema juice to make a thick smooth icing (for piping). If you want to dip the cookies in it, work in more lemon juice until it drips slowly off the spoon.
Pipe or dip cookies and let icing set.
NOTES
Really keep the glace as thick as you can for dipping. too much lemon juice and it will take forever to set.
