Preheat the oven to 350°F and position racks in the upper and lower thirds.

In a large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer or a stand mixer, beat the softened 2 sticks unsalted butter with 1 cup of confectioners’ sugar until very smooth, about 2 minutes.

Beat in the finely grated lemon zest and 1 1/2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, then beat in the 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 3/4 teaspoon of kosher salt until just incorporated; scrape down the side of the bowl as necessary.

Roll half of the dough into 1-inch balls and arrange them 1 inch apart on 2 lined baking sheets.

Using your fingers, gently flatten each cookie.

Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, until the cookies are lightly browned on the bottom and just firm; shift the baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through baking.

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes, then transfer them to a rack to cool completely.

Let the baking sheets cool slightly, then repeat with the remaining dough.

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of confectioners’ sugar, 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of softened unsalted butter until smooth for the lemon glaze.

Spread the lemon glaze on the cooled cookies and garnish with additional finely grated lemon zest.

Let stand until the glaze is set, about 15 minutes.
