- Sift dry ingredients and add to butter mixture. Mix until combined.
- Drop by teaspoonful onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 8 minutes or until lightly browned. Let cool on a wire rack.
- To make glaze, add juice to powdered sugar a little at a time to get desired consistency. (If you do not have enough juice, you may use water.)
- Spread glaze generously over cooled cookies.
