Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp. dried lavender (flower buds)
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 cup butter or margarine, soft
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp. lemon flavoring (opt)
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Extra sugar

Directions
  1. If you have a mortar and pestle handy, grind the lavender with the sugar, otherwise just combine. Cream in butter with a fork. Cream in extracts.
  2. Add flour gradually and cream together. Your dough will resemble pie crust: crumbly when mixed with a fork, sticky with your fingers.
  3. Form dough into a large ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refridgerate for at least an hour, not much more than two and a half.
  4. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Roll out your dough like pie crust, about 1/4 inch thick, and cut to desired shape and size. I use a shot glass top for a small round shape, which makes a few dozen cookies.
  5. For a sweet crispy top, use your finger (clean) to smear a little milk on top of each cookie and sprinkle with sugar. bake 12-15 minutes, until just starting to turn gold.
