This is a quick post. These cookies weren't very complicated and came together pretty easily. I wanted to see how olive oil played in cookies. From what my brief research session showed, olive oil leaves the cookies a little crusty and cakey. These cookies supported that bit of info to a T. They tasted much like the olive oil bundt cakes I baked a few weeks ago and were the cakiest cookies I've ever made. They might be for some people, but not for me...
Writing this post a couple days after I actually baked these cookies, I can also say that they do not keep well. After sitting in the cookie jar for two days, they are kind of soggy and a little lackluster on flavor. So if you make them, plan on eating them the day you bake them. They were also supposed to have an almond glaze, but I was lazy that day, and also don't need any more sugar in my life, so I skipped that. I suppose it would have been good together, but lemon and almond aren't what I naturally think of. Lemon glaze would have probably worked better as the lemon flavor could use some punching up to begin with. Any way...here are cookies.
