Lemons are one of the most versatile citrus fruits on the market, and they can be used in all sorts of different desserts. No one knows this better than food blogger Mei Yee, who’s constantly using them to take her desserts to the next level. Here are some of her best recipes that put lemons front and center.
Lemon Cookies
If you have a passion for cookies with perfect icing, this recipe is just the thing for you. These lemon cookies are so perfectly decorated that they look just like the real thing—and they taste even better!
Lemon Madeleines
Madeleines are one of Yee’s specialties, and we go crazy every time she shares a new recipe for this sweet treat. Lemon zest is one of the main ingredients in this one, but canary yellow safflower powder is actually responsible for its vibrant color.
