step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).

step 3

Whisk together the Almond Flour (1 1/2 cups), Semolina Flour (1/2 cup), Baking Powder (1 tsp), and Kosher Salt (as needed) in a medium bowl to combine.

step 4

Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat Unsalted Butter (2 Tbsp), Granulated Sugar (1 cup), an additional 2 tablespoons of sugar, zest and juice from Lemon (1) until very light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
