Your friends recipe was only 1/2c + 2 Tbsp more than your flour amount (your amount of cornstarch compensates for that), yet she has double the amount of zest and juice. I think that may have been the issue for being bland. Have you ever tried a glaze of just powdered sugar and the juice? Lighter yet more intense....So give your recipe a try again with more zest/juice...don't give up on the meltaways....I love these type of cookies! Good luck!<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1650','JennyMac'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> I think they may have been bland due to the amount of your zest and juice proportions.

So maybe the cookie wasn't so bad (or maybe my coworkers just have bad taste). Both are possible! ;)<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1630','Hilary'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> Well, like I said…some people loved them.

I hate it when I make a recipe that sounds fantastic, only to discover that it's a bust. Thanks for your honest review. Still, I might be tempted to try these anyway, since I love lemon and I've made meltaways. I wonder what could improve these?
