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

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.

Add flour gradually and cream together. Your dough will resemble pie crust: crumbly when mixed with a fork, sticky with your fingers.

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.

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.

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.
