"This is my great-grandmother's recipe. It has survived four generations and is still at the top of my cut-out recipe list. The secret is to roll the dough extra thin! Frost with buttercream frosting for best taste."

These cookies were tasty, but they were a bit dry. I used orange extract instead of lemon, and they turned out nicely.
