1 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp culinary lavender
1 T lemon zest

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

2. Using a mortar and pestle, crush the lavender almost to powder – set aside.

3. In a large bowl, combine the butter and both sugars and lemon zest.  Add in the flour and combine until well blended.  Add the crushed lavender and combine well.

4. Press the dough, evenly into an ungreased 8″ square baking pan.  Using a fork, deeply pierce the dough all over.
