Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

In another bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.

Add the egg, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop the dough and roll it into balls.

Roll each ball in granulated sugar to coat.

Place the cookie balls on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
