In a medium bowl, mix butter, lemon rind, vanilla, and lemon extract until blended.
Add flour, 2/3 cup powdered sugar, and salt stir until well blended. Divide dough in half. Cover and chill 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 325°. Place one portion of dough at a time on a surface lightly dusted with powdered sugar. Roll to about 1/4 -inch thickness. Dip cutters in powdered sugar and cut cookies. Place cookies 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Sprinkle with granulated sugar before baking if not decorating cookies after baking. Prick with a fork.
Bake 18 to 20 minutes just until golden. Do not overbake. Cool on wire racks. If desired, decorate with frosting. Store loosely covered if decorated otherwise, store in an airtight container.
