Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed.
- Add the lemon zest to the butter mixture and mix until well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and white rice flour.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed butter and sugar mixture. Mix on low speed until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix; you want the ingredients just combined.
- Divide the dough into small, even-sized balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gently flatten each ball with the back of a spoon or your fingers to create a biscuit shape.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the biscuits are cooling, prepare the lemon glaze. In a medium bowl, combine the powdered sugar and lemon juice. Stir until smooth. If the glaze is too thick, you can add a tiny bit more lemon juice or water.
- Once the biscuits are completely cool, drizzle or spread the glaze over each biscuit. Allow the glaze to set for about 15-20 minutes.
- Your lemon funfetti biscuits are ready to be enjoyed! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
Tips:
- Ensure the butter is at room temperature before you begin. This will make it easier to cream with sugar.
- For the best lemon flavor, use fresh lemon zest and juice.
- When measuring flour, make sure to spoon it into the measuring cup and level it off with a knife for accuracy.
- If you don’t have white rice flour, you can substitute it with more all-purpose flour.
- For a fun twist, you can add a few drops of yellow food coloring to the dough for a more vibrant appearance.
- Keep an eye on the biscuits while they bake to avoid over-browning. They should be lightly golden at the edges.
- Let the biscuits cool completely before adding any decorations, such as additional sprinkles or a lemon glaze if desired.
Congratulations! You've successfully made lemon funfetti biscuits. These delightful treats are not only tasty but also visually striking. Serve them at parties, gatherings, or just as a delightful snack. Enjoy the zesty lemon flavor and the fun, festive look!
