Lemon Crinkle Cookies

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 egg
1 tsp. lemon zest
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 cups all- purpose flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.  Mix in vanilla, egg, lemon zest and juice.  Stir in all dry ingredients slowly until just combined, excluding the powdered sugar.  Pour powdered sugar in a bowl.  Roll a heaping teaspoon of dough into a ball and roll in powdered sugar.  Place on baking sheet and bake 7-10 minutes or until bottoms begin to barely brown an cookies look matte rather than shiny.  Remove from oven and cool about 3 minutes on cookie sheet before transferring to cooling rack.
