For best results, use room temperature butter and eggs. Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too much during baking. Feel free to substitute other extracts, such as vanilla or almond, for the lemon extract. Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
