I have tried searching the EPI site(which I can usually search with success) but can't find a cookie. I thought someone posted a rolled refrigerator cookie that was rolled in poppyseeds, but maybe it was another site. anyone have a good recipe for refrigerated roll or for a good drop cookie?

 
I was going to Google, but I was hoping to find a recipe from the "Gail's" group. I'll go google

 
Oh, not 100 for me personally---duh---must be the site's 1000th post. Do I get a prize or a title?

Makova Zavin (Czech Poppy Seed Roll Cookies)

Cookie dough:

1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons sour cream
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind

Filling:

1 cup ground poppy seeds (see note)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon honey

To prepare cookie dough, beat together the
butter, sugar, egg and sour cream.

Place the flour and salt in a pile on a board
and make a well in the center. Add the
butter mixture to the well and work with the
finger tips to make a dough. Add the lemon rind.

To prepare filling, combine all ingredients
in a small pan. Bring to a boil, stirring,
and cook slowly five minutes, still stirring.
Cool to room temperature.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Roll out the dough into a rectangle about
one-third-inch thick. Spread with the cooled
poppy seed filling and roll from the long
side like a jellyroll.

Place on a greased baking sheet and bake
about 45 minutes, or until done. Cool and slice.

Yield: About 2 dozen slices.

Note: Ground poppy seeds can be bought
already ground in stores specializing in
German, Viennese and Hungarian ingredients or
poppy seeds can be ground in an electric blender.

Josh, I found this trying to locate the
recipe you requested and thought you might
like to have this. I have not tried it, but,
it does sound good.

Enjoy!

 
No Ruth, not the lemon cookie, but I'm so glad you posted this. I will be making this for Easter.

 
I found it! It's in the Xmas cookie post and by ellatoronto. I had to

put "lemon-poppy seed cookie" in the search, with the dash, and it finally came up. Thanks everyone.
