Looking for a unique and delicious dessert to impress your guests? Look no further than these Lemon Lavender Puffs! This delightful dessert combines the tangy flavor of lemon with the delicate floral notes of lavender, creating a truly unforgettable taste experience.

To make these Lemon Lavender Puffs, you will need the following ingredients:

- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon dried lavender
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice

This recipe makes 12 Lemon Lavender Puffs.
To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg yolk, lemon zest, dried lavender, and salt, and mix until well combined. Gradually add in the flour, mixing until a dough forms.
Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
While the puffs are baking, mix together the powdered sugar and lemon juice to create a glaze. Once the puffs are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Drizzle the glaze over the top of each puff, and serve immediately.

They are light and airy, with a delicate crumb and a subtle sweetness that is perfectly balanced by the tangy lemon and floral lavender flavors.
