My writing friend, Carolyn C. told me about this recipe when we drove last week to have lunch with another writing friend. Thanks, Carolyn- this is perfect for 2 of my lemon lovin' family members!
Easy Lemon Cookie
Ingredients
1 (18.25 ounce) package lemon cake mix
2 eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 package unsweetened KoolAid powder, lemonade flavor (This ingredient makes the flavor of the cookies really "pop" )
1 (18.25 ounce) package lemon cake mix
2 eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 package unsweetened KoolAid powder, lemonade flavor (This ingredient makes the flavor of the cookies really "pop" )
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar for decoration
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Pour cake mix into a large bowl. Stir in eggs, oil, and lemonade Kool Aid powder until well blended. (don't let the Play-Doh appearance fool you- these cookies are tart and moist.)
Drop teaspoonfuls of dough into a bowl of confectioners' sugar. Roll them around until they're lightly covered.
Once sugared, put them on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake for 6 to 9 minutes in the preheated oven. The bottoms will be light brown, and the insides chewy.
Hints:
Do not overbake. For best results, I bake them for six minutes--seven minutes at the most, and then let them cool on a paper towel on the counter or on a cookie sheet that is room temperature. While you can bake them as soon as you stir the ingredients together, this recipe also works well when the dough is made the night before and refrigerated.
