  6. THE FILLING : Beat butter until pale and creamy. Add lemon juice and lemon zest and mix again until smooth and creamy.
  7. Slowly add icing sugar in few batches, beating well in between additions. Add yellow colouring if using and mix well. Note : add lemon juice if its too dry. Add more icing sugar if mixture wont hold its shape.

These Lemon Melting Moments is what my mom would call a "cuppa tea" cookie. That, in short, means a cookie that really stands out for its simple perfection and is best enjoyed with a steaming cup of your favourite brew. This gorgeous little cookie is a twist on. These cookies are also somewhat similar to a shortbread; they're chock-full of butter, with a tart lemon glaze that melts in your mouth first. We topped each one of the cookies for the wedding with candied flowers - lilac, violets, and yellow mimosa.
