Instructions
Make the lemon cookie base
- Preheat the oven to 350F then line a baking sheet with parchement paper and set it aside.
- Cream the butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Whisk in the egg, the lemon juice, lemon zest, and the lemon extract and mix until combined.
- Mix in the flour, baking powder, and salt (mix in the poppy seeds now if you’re adding them) until the flour mixture disappears. Don't overmix your dough. Then using a large cookie scooper (4tbsp/1/4cup) scoop out 6 equally sized cookie dough balls, and place them on the prepared baking sheet and gently flatten them to about ½ inch in thickness.
- Bake the cookies in the oven for 11 minutes, then let them cool down on the baking sheet for 10-15 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool down fully.
- Once fully cooled, frost with the blackberry frosting and add a dollop of blackberry jam on top.
