Step 6

Bake (12-13 min.) Remove from oven; cool fully on baking sheet. (Don't worry if the cookies look underbaked, they will continue to bake as they cool.)

Step 7

Over med. heat, melt butter, lemon juice, powdered sugar, & lemon zest in sm. saucepan, stirring constantly until it comes to simmer. Remove from heat; mix in poppy seeds.

Step 8

Brush glaze over cookies; let it set for a few minutes & enjoy!

Step 9

If you want to make homemade lemon curd for these cookies, this is the best small batch lemon curd recipe ever. It is safest to use homemade lemon curd because not every store-bought lemon curd freezes properly.

Step 10

Since these cookies are filled with lemon curd in the center, they will inevitably stay a bit wet on top. But don’t worry about that too much because as they cool down on the baking sheet they will continue to bake from the heat of the cookie and the baking sheet. Let them cool down before you judge their doneness! Plus they will stay looking slightly undercooked because of the moisture in the curd.

Step 11

Because these cookies are filled with egg-lemon curd, it is best to store them in fridge in an airtight container (up to 7 days.). Once you’re ready to enjoy it, you can either let the cookies get back to room temp. but let’s be honest… Who has time for that right?! …I usually just pop it in the microwave for a few seconds then enjoy it!
