Instructions
Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Grate zest from 1 lemon directly over another mixing bowl. Squeeze 3 tablespoons lemon juice into a third bowl; set aside.
Add butter to lemon zest and beat with an electric mixer on medium until combined.
Add sugar a little at a time; beat 1 minute.
Add yolk (cover egg white with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use) and half the flour mixture; beat on low until just combined.
Add lemon juice, vanilla and remaining flour mixture. Beat until just combined. Form dough into a log about 8 inches long and 2 inches in diameter. Cover tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 3 hours.
Heat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cut dough into 40 thin rounds and place on baking sheets.
Whisk egg white with 1/4 teaspoon water; brush on top of cookies. Dust each with a bit of sugar.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are golden. (If baking both sheets of cookies at the same time, alternate positions halfway through.)
Let cool on baking sheet 5 minutes.
Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
