At the end of the workday,
they came pouring out of the subway,
looking tired,
but probably glad
to be back in the neighborhood.

Ingredients
Cookies:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 (15-ounce) container whole milk ricotta cheese
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 lemon, zested
Glaze:
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 lemon, zested
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Cookies:
In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In the large bowl combine the butter and the sugar. Using an electric mixer beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating until incorporated. Add the ricotta cheese, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Beat to combine. Stir in the dry ingredients.
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Spoon the dough (about 2 tablespoons for each cookie) onto the baking sheets. Bake for 15 minutes, until slightly golden at the edges. Remove from the oven and let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 20 minutes.
Glaze:
Combine the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a small bowl and stir until smooth. Spoon about 1/2-teaspoon onto each cookie and use the back of the spoon to gently spread. Let the glaze harden for about 2 hours. Pack the cookies into a decorative container.
Katia,
Here is the recipe I told you about today in the Met. They came out delicious and were easy to make. My daughter loved them. This recipe comes from Giada De Laurentiis' cookbook. Happy Baking!

Thanks carol,
Will certainly try the recipe. I love lemon cookies.
It was nice running into you today!
Say hi to the family.
Katia,
Please bring your camera to see what's going on when the same people are leaving for work in the morning. It's chaos and dangerous as people are crossing the street to the only open entry at the back end of the train. Someone must be out there directing traffic until the new building is finished enough for us to get our entry back. I truly am afraid someone is going to get hit by a car. Shouldn't the developer have to pay for this, and not taxpayers?
Really? People can't safely cross the street? A developer should pay his fair (or, "fare", in this case) share of impacts on the public, but really? A subway exit is closed so there should be a crossing guard?
From the sublime to the ridiculous...
Batman, so true! I hate these over zealous developers as much as the next guy; but to expect to be 'paid' in case of an accident?! These yuppies/hipsters never cease!
I am not a yuppie or a hipster. Am a middle aged person who needs to get to work in one piece and doesn't want to witness an accident that's waiting to happen. The conditions are absolutely unsafe.
The developer brought this hazard to our neighborhood. An MTA employee used the word "chaos" when I asked about what's happening on Smith. Lots of students use this station, so putting a crossing guard sounds like a great idea.
Batman: you are a genius. Are you volunteering to make our neighborhood safer and become a crossing guard? Perhaps impa will join you.
what ever happen to look both ways before you cross the street? ... If you arent able to do that then maybe you need a babysitter!!
