Provided by hantie96

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Lemon Dessert Recipes

Time 1h35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon baking soda
1 cup white sugar
½ cup butter, softened
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 drop yellow food coloring, or as desired
¾ cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Sift flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat sugar and butter together in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment until creamy. Beat in egg, vanilla extract, lemon extract, lemon zest and juice, and yellow food coloring. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix once more, making sure everything is combined. Add flour mixture and mix until just combined.
  • Cover bowl and refrigerate cookie dough for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Scoop dough using a cookie scoop or spoon into roughly 1 1/2-inch rounds. Slightly flatten cookies to 1/2-inch thickness.
  • Pour powdered sugar into a shallow bowl. Place flattened rounds in powdered sugar and cover until well coated. Remove with a fork or spoon and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are no longer glossy and have a matte look, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 3 to 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons: Fresh lemon zest and juice add a bright, citrusy flavor to these cookies. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly golden brown around the edges and the tops should be firm to the touch. If you overbake the cookies, they will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly and prevent it from melting.

Conclusion:

These lemon burst cake mix cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy with a bright, citrusy flavor. The frosting is sweet and tangy, and it perfectly complements the cookies. These cookies are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
