Chewy Lemon Crinkle Cookies With Crisp Edges

"Made with fresh lemon zest and real lemon juice, these Lemon Crinkle Cookies bake up soft and chewy in the center with lightly crisp edges. There’s no cake mix shortcut here, just simple pantry staples and a double roll in powdered sugar for those bold, snowy cracks. Chill the dough before baking to keep them thick and perfectly crinkled. The dough is loaded with lemon zest, then backed up with lemon juice, so you get that fresh lemon flavor instead of the flat “lemon” taste you get from a cake mix shortcut. When they bake, the tops split open into crinkles and you can see the soft, moist center peeking through. When I want something bright in the middle of winter, or honestly anytime the dessert table needs a little zip, these are the cookies I reach for."
