When I think of Easter and Spring, all things lemon come to mind. I am especially drawn to lemon bars and lemon cookies, lemon meringue pie and even lemon candy (why was the lemon Jolly Rancher so carelessly cast aside?). I am always eager to hunt down a girl scout and beg her for lemon sandwich cookies, too. Thus, I was inspired to make a lemon sandwich cookie of my very own. Although this was a slightly labor intensive cookie, if you are well organized, it should go quite smoothly (or, if you are me, and you find yourself needing ingredients and also in a money saving mode, you will find yourself biking to the nearest grocery store, huffing and puffing and then nearly crying when you realize you have to bike home with a bag of flour in your satchel). These cookies are so sprite and yummy and the cream cheese filling is SO good, you’ll want to carelessly smear it on everything edible in your pantry (Ritz with peanut butter and lemon cream filling?! Yes!).
