Instructions

  1. Cream the butter well, then add the sugar and cold water, mixing thoroughly. Sift the flour twice with the baking powder, and fold this mixture into the butter and sugar along with the lemon extract. Fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites gently to preserve their volume. Bake in small shapes. Once cooled, frost with boiled frosting and ornament with tiny pink candies.
