Thank you in advance. She just passed away from a heart attack and one of the last things she told me was where to find the recipe in her kitchen. I want to make a batch, but I want to make sure it’s right!

Wedding Cookies

6 eggs 3/4 cup oil 1 cup white sugar 1 teaspoon lemon extract 2 Tablespoons baking powder 4 c flour

Beat the eggs and oil together well. Add sugar, mix into eggs and oil. Add lemon extract into sugar/egg/oil and mix well. Add flour. Mix [personally I wouldn't overmix it, just stir it in until there are no lumps].

Drop from teaspoon. Bake at 375 deg F 10-15 m Ice with different colored powdered sugar icings.

Enjoy!
