Slice dough into 1/4-inch slices and place at least an inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes at 350 degrees F or until cookies are set (cookies will not brown). Remove cookies from baking sheet to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the glaze, whisk sugar with lemon extract. Add enough milk to form drizzling consistency. Drizzle cookies lightly with glaze in a zigzag fashion. Allow to stand at least 30 minutes.
