Thyme for Cookies

Today I made a batch of Lemon Thyme Cookies, one of my favorites... Lemon Thyme grows freely on my back patio, in fact it seems to enjoy popping up in the small creek stones. At a later time I will go to the growth patterns and habits of this historically signatificant herb, but for now just enjoy this fun cookie!

Lemon Thyme Cookies
1 cup buuter
1 1/2  cup sugar
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp cream of tarter
1/2 tsp salt
5 TBLS Fresh  Lemon Thyme or 3 TBLS dried

Cream butter and sugar, add eggs and mix well. Sift  flour,cream of tarter and salt. Stir flour mix into butter, sugar and eggs until well blended. Add lemon thyme. Refrigerate overnight. Preheat  oven to 350. Roll into to 1" balls and bake on greased cookie sheet 10 min.

  1. I think I've planted too much lemon thyme and didn't know what I was going to do with it - now I do! Can't wait to try this lovely recipe. Leigh
