- Lemon Slice Muffins
-
- 3 lemons
- 1 T. water
- 1/2 c. sugar, or more, if needed
- 6 T. unsalted butter
- 2 c. flour
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 c. milk
- Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Butter standard-size muffin tins. Finely grate the zest from the lemons, removing only the bright yellow portion of the peel. Set the lemons aside. Combine the zest, the water and 1/4 cup of the sugar in a small saucepan. Stir over medium heat for about 2 minutes, just until the sugar dissolves. Add the butter and stir until melted, about 1 minute longer. Set aside. With a sharp knife, remove and discard all the remaining peel from the lemons. Cut the lemons crosswise into slices about 1/4 inch thick; discard any seeds. You will need about 12 nicely shaped slices. Put about 1 teaspoon of the remaining sugar in the bottom of each prepared muffin cup and place a lemon slice on top. In a medium bowl, stir and toss together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside. In a larger bowl, whisk together the eggs milk and the reserved lemon mixture until smooth. Add the combined dry ingredients and stir just until blended. Spoon into the tins, filling about 3/4 full. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Immediately invert the tins; the muffins should fall out. If they resist, nudge them out with a knife.

Thumbprint Cookies
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Sift flour and salt together in a bowl and set aside. Mix butter and date paste in a mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 2 min.) Add egg and vanilla and mix until incorporated.
While mixer runs on lowest speed, gradually add flour and mix just until mixed in and dough ball forms. Scrape down sides of bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.
Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon to measure, roll dough into balls. Roll the balls in chopped walnuts and place on parchment lined baking sheets at least 2 inches apart. Using your thumb, make an indentation in the middle of the cookies. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until very lightly brown. While still warm, gently press a chocolate kiss into the indentation.
Allow cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
Store in an airtight container.
