Step 1
Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl, at medium speed, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, and mix until well combined. Scrape bowl as needed. Add lemon zest, lemon juice, milk, and vanilla mix until combined.
Step 3
Carefully add flour mixture, beat until just incorporated. Cover dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Step 4
Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare two half baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 5
Place powdered raw cane sugar in a shallow dish. Using a medium cookie dough scoop, form 15 balls of dough. Roll the dough in the sugar. Place the balls of dough in the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the cookies are puffed and cracked. Allow cookies to rest for 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a cooling rack.
If you want to add a little yellow color to the dough, add 1/8 teaspoon of ground turmeric to the dough.
