Ingredients (per serving):

- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tbsp poppy seeds

Cooking Tips:

- Make sure your butter is softened before you begin mixing your ingredients.
- Use fresh lemon juice and zest for the best flavor.
- Don't overmix your batter - this can cause your drops to become tough.

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add the softened butter and egg yolk to the bowl, and mix until well combined.
4. Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and poppy seeds.
5. Drop the batter by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the drops are lightly golden.
7. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
