Form the dough into 1 inch balls and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared sheets. Flatten each ball with the bottom of a glass dipped into granulated sugar to keep it from sticking to the dough. Bake the cookies in the middle of the oven for about 13 minutes, or until barely golden.
Transfer to wire racks. As soon as they are cool enough to handle, dip the top of each cookie in lemon glaze and allow to cool completely. store in airtight containers for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Answer 6

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aNCKv

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true
