- Beat butter and both sugars with an electric mixer until fluffy.
- Add eggs, one at a time, and beat well after each addition.
- Add grated peel and lemon juice and bleat until well blended.
- Add flour, baking soda and salt to butter mixture, beating until just blended.
- Divide into 3 equal pieces and roll each piece, on wax or parchment paper, into a 12 inch log.
- Wrap and chill for 8 hours. I usually make up the night before I want to bake them.
- Cut each log into 1/2 inch slices and place on lightly greased baking sheets.
- Bake at 350º for 12 to 14 minutes until edges are lightly browned.
- Remove to wire racks to cool.
- Store in an airtight container or freeze.
