Victorian Lavender Cookies with Rose Water Icing Recipe

I was looking for a summer time cookie for an upcoming family gathering which incorporated a 25th Ann. surprise for my brother and I came across this recipe and said these will be the one. Well to my surprise I thought they were yummy and I have to say most who tired them agreed, the ones who did not care for them all said the same thing, that they tasted like hand lotion, and I think they had that idea when they tasted them, but I wanted to let everyone know just in case someone might be allerigic to roses or lavender. Over all they were a hit and I had a few other friends try them at other times too and they loved them and YES I will make them again, I think the only change I would do is to recrush the lavender a bit smaller. I was told my a culinary grad that there should not be little pieces of lavender in the cookie, so crushing it might make a difference in the taste too. I will have to follow up on it and let everyone know the results. Take a try they are very yummy!

The cookies taste Great! I have to add extra flour to get the right dough. The rose water icing was good. I let my family drizzle icing on their own cookie some liked it; others just liked the cookie plain. A+
