Frilly Lemon Meltaway Cookies

What could be more lovely than Frilly Lemon Cookies at a
Tea Party? I adore Lemon Meltaway Cookies and have been
making them for Tea Parties for years. I usually follow the
basic directions and form the cookie dough into logs, which
are sliced and baked. Today, I thought I'd try rolling the
dough out and using my flower shaped cookie cutters!

I rolled the dough out using a light dusting of powdered sugar.
No problem!

After baking, a few cookies had small cracks on the surface
but you couldn't see the cracks after I dusted them with
powdered sugar.
