Easy Cake Mix Cookies- Perfect Lemon Cookie image

I frequently make these cookies for work pitch-ins & family get-togethers. They are always a big hit! I was given the basic recipe several years ago by a lady who showed up at my garage sale-and she wrote it down during our conversation about baking. I have perfected different varieties over the years. Please see my other recipes for how to make the following versions of this cookie: chocolate-chocolate chip, chocolate chip, & sugar cookies. This is a really versatile recipe base-experiment!!

Time 13m

Yield 24-36 cookies, 24-36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (18 ounce) box lemon supreme cake mix
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Stir ingredients in medium mixing bowl until blended (best to do right before you are ready to bake them- they flatten out more if you let the batter set).
  • Spoon onto 2 un-greased cookie sheets (allow some space in between, they spread...a melon baller works great for this step).
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes (depends on which cake mix you use & the oven -- I start looking at them through the glass around 6.5 minutes -- they will get a dull/cracked appearance on top when done).
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the pan, or wait 1-2 minutes before moving to cooling racks. Cookies will be soft/chewy.
  • While lemon cookies are cooling, mix together the powdered sugar & lemon juice in a small bowl, add more powdered sugar for a stiffer glaze. Lightly brush or drizzle glaze onto warm cookies on the cooling rack.

* **Use a high-quality cake mix.** The quality of your cake mix will directly impact the quality of your cookies. Use a cake mix that you know and love, and make sure it is fresh. * **Don't overwork the batter.** Overworked batter will result in tough cookies. Stir the batter until it is just combined, then stop. * **Use the right size of the scoop.** If you use a scoop, make sure it is a small one, so that your cookies will be uniformly sized. * **Bake the cookies at the right temperature.** The cookies should be baked at a lower temperature than the temperature specified on the cake mix package. This will help to prevent the cookies from browning too much. * **Don't overbake the cookies.** Overbaked cookies will be hard and dry. Bake the cookies until they are just set, then remove them from the pan and let them cool on a wire ratch.
