2 oz cream cheese
6 TBSP of unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup plus 1 Tablespoon Powdered Sugar, plus more for rolling the cookies in.

15 drops of Lemon doTERRA Essential Oil (Slim & Sassy is great too!)

Method:

1. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. 
2. Cream the butter, cream cheese and sugars together until smooth. Add the essential oil drops, vanilla and eggs and mix again. 
3. In a separate bowl mix together all of the dry ingredients so they can become well incorporated into the dough. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well. 
4. Scoop cookies onto a baking sheet and bake for 9-10 minutes, remove from the oven and dust with powdered sugar.

Note: The amount of oil that you use will determine how lemony the cookies are, but remember that the dough will be stronger than the baked cookies.
