Another fab recipe from My Kitchen Cafe. (Check her latest cookie entry here. OH MY!) I adjusted these babies a bit with a tad more lemon and fresh blackberries and man they were delicious!
For Cookies:
3 cups flour
Zest of 1 lemon (2-3 teaspoons)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 sticks butter, softened
1 1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup well-shaken buttermilk
For Glaze:
1 1/2 c powdered sugar
3 Tbs well shaken buttermilk
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 TBS lemon juice
Set oven to 350 degrees and grease 2 baking sheets. Whisk together flour, zest, soda, and salt. Set aside.
Beat together butter and sugar in large bowl until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, then add vanilla. Mix in flour mixture and buttermilk alternately in batches at low speed until smooth. Chill dough in the fridge for 20 minutes.
Drop level tablespoons of dough about 1 1/2 inches apart onto baking sheets. Bake 12-15 minutes until cookies are puffed and edges are golden. Transfer to racks.
Whisk together all glaze ingredients and brush tops of warm cookies. Add blackberries to the top and cool until glaze is set.

Holy cow, Jaesi - you have a way of making my recipes ten times better than I made them! I love it! The blackberries look stunning on these cookies. In fact, when I first checked out the post, before I realized it was a recipe I had previously posted, I was saying, "I have GOT to try these" because they look so great!
