Ok, the truth be told, it was very hard to get these cookies to come out looking like this in humid weather, so if the crinkling is important to you, make them in winter. You will be happier. But if the cookie doesn't have to look perfect, this is a great summer cookie because they are so lemony it is refreshing.
