Lemon Cookie Goodness

Image
What to do when you receive a bag full of lemons? You come up with multiple ways to use them :) So, here is the first way...Lemon cookies (inspired by BrowEyedBaker.com) Ingredients: 1 (18.25 oz) package lemon or yellow cake mix - I had yellow, so I went with that instead, just less lemony flavor. Also, just an fyi - Duncan Hines changed their packages to 15 oz now, so beware that may mess up your recipe. I used Pillsbury cake mix 2 eggs 1/3 cup vegetable oil Zest of 2 lemons 2 Tbsp lemon juice (the real stuff) 1/2 tsp vanilla 1/3 cup powdered sugar Directions Preheat oven to 375. Place your silpat on your perforated baking sheet Pour cake mix into large bowl; mix in eggs, oil, lemon zest, lemon juice and vanilla until well blended. Pour the sugar into a bowl Using a cookie scooper (I think this is easiest), drop spoonfuls of dough into bowl and roll into sugar until coated. I think it's a tad easier if you refrigerate the dough for a little bit, then roll the dough
