Bright Lemon Delights

  1. Mix butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add cornstarch and flour, mixing well. Refrigerate until easy to handle.
  2. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Shape chilled dough into 1-inch balls. Put chopped nuts in the center of a sheet of wax paper. Place dough balls on the bed of chopped pecans and flatten each with the bottom of a glass dipped in flour. Place nut-side up on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 15 minutes; cool completely and frost with Tart Lemon Frosting.
  3. To make the frosting, mix together the three ingredients, adding more powdered sugar as necessary to make a frosting that isn't too runny. Divide the frosting into thirds, and color each a different shade, such as pink, yellow and pale green. Frost each cookie with a "dollop" of frosting in the center, but not all the way to the edge. (It should look as though a large mint is in the center of each cookie.)
