Makes 1 dozen.
Ingredients
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
6 tablespoons lemon juice
Grated peel of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons sugar mixed with cinnamon to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F. In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and salt and set aside. In a second bowl cream together the butter and 1 cup sugar. Add the eggs, lemon juice, and lemon peel and stir in the dry ingredients, mixing only enough to form a moist batter. Spoon the batter into muffin tins, sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar, and bake 15-20 minutes.
