       Yield: 4 servings
  
       6 tb Butter or margarine; soft
   1 1/4 c  Sugar
       1    Lemon; grated peel
       1 ds Salt
       4    Eggs
   3 1/2 c  Flour
       1 ts Baking powder
            Oil
       2 ts Ground cinnamon
  
        Cream butter and 1 c sugar in bowl until light and fluffy. Add lemon
   peel and salt. Beat in eggs one at a time. Sift together flour and baking
   powder in separate bowl. Fold into butter mixture to make dough.
       Heat enough oil for frying in deep frying pan to 360. Shape dough into
   small balls and drop about 8 at a   time into hot oil. Fry 3 minutes. Turn
   with slotted spoon and let dough fry until golden brown, 2 to 3 more
   minutes. Lift out cookies with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
   Combine remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon, and while cookies are warm,
   sprinkle on the sugar and cinnamon.   . Source: Judy Zeidler.
