Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt, then set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a few drops of pink food coloring until evenly mixed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until a soft dough forms.
Scoop the dough into tablespoon-sized balls and roll each one in powdered sugar until fully coated.
Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the cookies are puffed, cracked on top, and just set around the edges.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
