My Mama’s Tea cakes
Mom used to make these cookies when we were growing up. This is the perfect cookie that's almost halfway to a cake. Light and summery with a tangy lemon glaze, this cookie 's texture has a snap but the inside is nice and chewy. The recipe is so simple! It's a great quick recipe to make with your kids or if you are in a hurry for a homemade treat.
