Beat sugar and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium speed until creamed, about 90 seconds. Add egg, lemon zest and lemon juice; beat on medium speed until combined, about 1 minute, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. With the mixer running on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture, beating until combined, about 1 minute. Cover and refrigerate until slightly firmer, about 30 minutes. Position racks in lower and upper thirds of oven; preheat to 350°F. Line 3 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Place confectioners' sugar in a small bowl. Scoop the dough with a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop; roll to create a ball. Roll each ball, one at a time, in the sugar until completely covered. Gently place on a prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, spacing the balls 2 inches apart. Place 2 of the baking sheets on separate racks; bake until the edges of the cookies are set, about 10 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the pans for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely, about 15 minutes. Repeat with the remaining sheet of cookies.

Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
