Meyer Lemon Shortbread Cookies

>

I’ve seen Meyer lemons in the grocery store, but wondered how they were different and why they cost more. I recently came across some recipes using them, so I thought next time at the grocery I’d get some. They’re sweeter than normal lemons, which makes them good to use in desserts. I zested the lemons and made some Meyer Lemon Shortbread Cookies, and made lemonade from the juice. The cookies have a very light lemon taste. But, these sugar cookies remind me of the Girl Scout cookies! These are healthier too than the boxed cookies.
