Cooking instruction summary:

MAKE THE COOKIESPreheat oven to 350F and prepare cookie trays with parchment paper.Using a stand mixer and the whisk attachment or electric hand beaters, cream the butter and lemon zest until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.Add the icing sugar and continue to beat until creamy.Using a rubber spatula, fold in the custard powder and then gradually add the flour until the mixture has come together enough to make small balls of dough. Don’t add all the flour at once – depending on the weather, you might need less than ¾ cup – the mixture should not be too crumbly otherwise you won’t be able to form the cookie shapes.Roll into small, teaspoon sized balls, press with a fork to flatten the cookies slightly.Bake for 12-15 minutes until cookies are golden. They will still be a little soft as you take them out of the oven.Remove cookies from trays with a large spatula and place on cooling rack until completely cool.MAKE THE FILLINGCream the butter with electric hand beaters until light and fluffy.Add the icing sugar and continue to beat (at first on low speed so the icing sugar doesn't go flying everywhere) until the icing sugar is almost completely absorbed into the butter.Add the milk and vanilla and beat until the mixture is thick and creamy - think Nutella-type consistency that you can pipe into the cookies.TO FILLFill a piping bag (14") with the filling.Turn 8 of the cooled cookie halves upside down and pipe about a tablespoon of the filling on each half.Carefully using a circular motion, join matching cookie halves making sure not to press too hard as the cookies will still be a little soft.Store in an airtight container.

Food Joke

The Lone Ranger and Tonto walked into a bar one day and sat down to drink a beer. After a few minutes, a big tall cowboy walked in and said, "Who owns the big white horse outside?" The Lone Ranger stood up, hitched his gunbelt, and said, "I do. Why?" The cowboy looked at the Lone Ranger and said, "I just thought you would like to know that your horse is just about dead outside!" The Lone Ranger and Tonto rushed outside and, sure enough, Silver was about dead from heat exhaustion. The Lone Ranger got him some water and made him drink it, and soon Silver was starting to feel a little better. The Lone Ranger turned to Tonto and said, "Tonto, I want you to run around Silver and see if you can create enough of a breeze to make him start to feel better." Tonto said, "Sure Kemosabe", and took off running circles around Silver. Not able to do anything else but wait, the Lone Ranger returned to the bar to finish his drink. A few minutes later, another cowboy struts into the bar and announces, "Who owns that big white horse outside?" The Lone Ranger stands again and claims, "I do. What is wrong with him this time?" The cowboy says to him, "Nothing much, I just wanted you to know... you left your Injun running!"
