1 stick plus 2 tablespoons dairy free butter at room temperature
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
finely grated zest of 1 large lemon
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1 large egg at room temperature
1/4 tsp table salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup all purpose flour
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream the dairy free butter, sugar, and lemon zest until light and fluffy. Scrape the bowl. Add the lemon juice and lemon extract mix until well combined. Add the egg and mix until well combined. Scrape the bowl. Add the salt, baking soda and flour and mix until incorporated.
Use a tablespoon to scoop the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2" between the cookies. They will spread as they bake so make sure to leave enough room.
Bake until the edges are golden brown and the middle of the cookies are set, about 8-10 minutes.
Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack and allow to cool completely.
