Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups flour
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • zest of 1 lemon

Wet Ingredients

  • ¼ cup lemon juice (or a bit less for a less intense lemon-y flavor)
  • ⅓ cup olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • powdered sugar for dusting on top

Steps

1

Preheat your oven to 180°C / 350°F.

2

Add all of the dry ingredients to a bowl and mix.

3

Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix with a rubber spatula or your hands (recommended). It should form a large dough ball.

4

Shape the dough ball into a square, about ½ inch tall. Cut the square into 4 even rows, then rotate and repeat. This will create 12 equal dough squares.

5

Roll the 12 squares into balls and arrange onto a parchment lined baking sheet.

6

Bake for 10 minutes for a perfectly gooey center or up to 12 minutes.
