- In a medium-sized bowl, stir together flour, baking powder and salt.
- Add cardamom, ginger, and cloves.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat butter until fluffy with an electric mixer.
- Beat in sugar and vanilla for 2 minutes.
- Add egg and beat for 30 seconds.
- Beat in milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
- Stir in the flour mixture to the large bowl mixture.
- When mixed, dough will be slightly soft.
- Put dough on waxed paper and shape it into a log, roughly 12 x 2 inches.
- Chill dough 1 to 6 hours.
- After chilling, preheat oven to 375.
- Cut the log into 1/4-inch slices.
- Note: If you cannot chill the dough long enough, it might be too soft to slice neatly. In this case, cut the log into 1/4-inch slices, roll them into balls, and press into neat circles.
- Arrange on cookie sheet 2 inches apart.
- Sprinkle with reserved sugar and bake for 10-13 minutes.
