3 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup poppy seeds
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
⅔ cup white sugar
1 egg, separated
2 tablespoons lemon zest
¼ cup lemon juice

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl cream butter and sugar together until light; beat in egg yolk, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Fold in flour mixture and mix well.
