I was going to post a lemon bread recipe this week, but after making it, I decided it wasn’t up to par, and I want to tweak it to make it richer tasting. So I am reposting a delicious light and fresh tasting lemon cookie that I first posted almost a year ago before I had many of you as followers. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did…
These cookies are DELICIOUS!
Also they are as easy as could be.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 box lemon cake mix
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup of oil
- 1 teaspoon of lemon flavoring
- powdered sugar for rolling the cookies in
DIRECTIONS:
- Mix together the cake mix, eggs, oil and flavoring.
- Scoop small spoonfuls into balls and roll them in the powdered sugar.
- Lightly spray cookie sheet with cooking spray or use parchment paper to keep them from sticking and getting too brown on the bottom.
Bake at 375 degrees for 9 to 12 minutes.

I had bought some lemon frosting thinking I would frost them, but these cookies did not need it. They were perfect just the way they were, light and lemony and great for spring, summer or anytime!
Looks delicious!

These look perfect for afternoon tea! I am pinning these too 🙂
My Aunt makes these, she holds her recipes with a tight grip, but I knew she used cake mix. She would use different flavored cake mixes. One time I asked her for the recipe and she said no, pfffft. LOL! So then I said to her, is it hard to put the cake mix in the bowl and she looked at me all flushed. She boasted how they were all from scratch. Nonetheless I love using cake mix and I know that these cookies are very yummy and they are definitely soft and chewy! I found your blog from a blog hop and I am a new follower. Please stop by anytime. Thank you for sharing this recipe. I love making them!
Warmest Regards,
Annamaria
That is so funny!
