Steps
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter, sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks and mix to combine.
- Whisk together the flour with the salt and add to the butter mixture. Mix just to combine. Scoop the dough into rounded tablespoons balls and press the balls into a lightly greased mini muffin tin. Using a finger or the back of a measuring spoon, gently press the dough about 3/4 of the way up the sides of each cup.
- Bake for about 18-20 minutes or until just barely golden. The cookies will puff in the oven. Press them again with the back of a spoon immediately when they come out of the oven.
- Cool completely and fill with lemon curd.

Tips: Garnish with a strip of lemon zest.
