Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 box Lemon Cake Mix (I like Duncan Hines)
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup oil
- 1 lemon juice and zest
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the cake mix, the eggs and the oil. Stir until you can’t see any more dry cake mix. You don’t want to overmix.
- Using a cookie scoop to make sure all your cookies are the same size, scoop the cookie dough onto your prepared baking tray, leaving about 2” between dough balls.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until you see cracks on the top of the cookies, being careful not to overbake them. Remove from the baking tray and let cool.
Notes
- To make lemon sandwich cookies you’ll need 1 tub of vanilla frosting for the filling.
- To make lemon crinkle cookies, you’ll need 1 cup of powdered sugar to roll the cookie dough in before baking
- Freezing Instructions: You can either freeze the cookie dough balls before baking, or bake the cookies as directed and freeze them already baked. They will last in the freezer up to 2 months.
