Sift flour, baking powder and salt into medium bowl and mix well. Whisk eggs in a large bowl until blended. Add sugar, oil, vanilla extract and lemon zest. Mix well. Stir the dry ingredients into egg mixture until blended. Chill, covered, for 30 minutes or longer. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Drop the cookie dough by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Mist the bottom of 3 inch flat bottom glass with water and dip into granulated sugar. Press the top of each cookie with the glass to flatten, misting glass with water and dipping in sugar before pressing each cookie. Bake cookies until lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Store in airtight container or freeze for future use.

Grandma’s secrets: To make cookies with a rich butterscotch flavor, substitute 3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar for the granulated sugar and omit lemon zest. Use granulated sugar for flattening the cookies.
