Belle's Pink Lemonade Cookies


This was cousin Zella's favorite summer recipe she shared at Bucket:

Belle's Pink Lemonade Cookies

2 lemons
1 (15 oz.) box strawberry cake mix
2 eggs
1/2 cup mashed strawberries
2 T. oil
2 cups powdered sugar.

Zest and juice the lemons.  Add half the zest (about 1/2 T.) and juice (about 1/3 cup) to a mixing bowl.  Add the dry cake mix, eggs, strawberries and oil.  Mix well and scoop dollops onto a cookie sheet.  Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes.  Cool on a rack.

For the icing, mix in a bowl 2 cups powdered sugar, the other half of the lemon zest and just enough of the juice so you can drizzle the icing.

When cookies are cooled, drizzle away.  store the cookies in an air-tight container.
