They're a great way to add a slight change to the flavor of things normally using lemons. Though that said, if you can't find them, you could also make these cookies with regular lemons. These cookies use a mixture of both Meyer lemon zest and juice in the dough. There's also a little more in the glaze so you really get the flavor.
