Steps:
- With a mixer, combine the granulated sugar, butter, olive oil and lemon zest . Add the eggs, one at a time, and continue to beat for 1 minute.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt, and mix into the lemon mixture until a soft dough forms. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Divide the dough into thirds. Cut each third in half, then repeat. (You should have 12 small pieces of dough.)
- On a surface lightly dusted with flour, roll each piece out into a 1/2-inch-thick log, then cut each into 3 pieces. Coil each piece into a small bun shape, bringing the end up over the top and pinching to seal. (Don't worry if they look funny; the glaze will cover any screw-ups.) Repeat with all the pieces, then arrange on the prepared cookie sheets at least 3 inches apart.
- Bake in batches, rotating the pans halfway through, 18 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
- Place the confectioners' sugar in a small bowl and break up any large clumps with a whisk. Add the juice of 1/2 a lemon and whisk until a smooth glaze forms (if the glaze is too thick, add a bit more lemon juice; if it is too thin, add a bit more sugar).
- Dip the tops of each cookie into the glaze and allow the excess to drip back into the bowl. Place on a wire rack to dry, then store in an airtight container. Cookies will keep for 5 days at room temperature, or 3 weeks frozen.

Steps:
- If you prefer, dough can be made the day before which makes it nice and chilled to work with, or you can start scooping them right after you make the dough but probably you will have to chill it for a while as you're making the cookies and the dough stays out. I sometimes stick it in the freezer for a few minutes to get it to firm up again.
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar together until fluffy, add eggs one at a time, then the extract and zest.
- In a smaller bowl whisk the flour, salt and baking powder, then slowly add to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, you might not have to use all the milk.
- When everything is incorporated, let the dough rest for 5 minutes or wrap and chill overnight.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. and place cookies on a parchment lined baking sheet.
- To form the knots I like to use a cookie scoop so all will be similar in size, then take the scoop of dough and roll it into a log about 5 or 6 inches, it's the length of a bench scraper, that's how I measure mine.
- Then take one side of the log and spiral it into a circle, you can tuck the other end down or up, it doesn't matter.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes according to your oven, mine took exactly 12 minutes, you want the underneath to be golden brown, not dark brown.
- Cool on racks.
- LIMONCELLO ICING
- One and one half cups of powdered sugar
- Five tablespoons of limoncello Liqueur
- zest of 1 lemon
- TRADITIONAL LEMON ICING
- One and one half cups of powdered sugar
- zest of 1 lemon
- One half teaspoon of lemon extract
- and lemon juice to get the right consistency.
- I always taste my icing to make sure it has the right amount of lemon, you can always add more, and I also like to brush my icing on instead of dipping., personal preference.
- After frosting immediately put your sprinkles on and then let the whole cookie dry for about an hour.
- You can keep them in tins with wax paper in between, or you can freeze them in an airtight container right after they bake and cool down, then frost them a day or two ahead before you'll be eating them.

Steps:
- Mix together flour, eggs, milk, lemon extract and rind, sugar, and baking powder, in large bowl. Add shortening till it forms a dough. You might need to add some more milk or more flour to get the right consistency, but after doing so, take golf ball size pieces and shape them into balls or roll them like a log and tie them in a bow, or make a horseshoe shape and twist them over like I did. Bake at 350 degrees for exactly 15 minutes. When they cool dip them in the icing and place them on wax paper untill they set.
