3/4 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons corn syrup
1 teaspoon lemon extract or 1 TBS of fresh lemon juice
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup white sugar

DIRECTIONS
In a medium bowl, cream together butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, corn syrup, and lemon extract. Stir in flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Cover dough, and chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour.
