- Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon extract and mix on low speed until just combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt, then gradually add to the wet ingredients while mixing on low.
- Fold in the lemon zest and lemon juice until evenly distributed.
- Drop mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart, and bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
