Hello all, I know everyone has been waiting for the wonderful Mexican food recipe and I want to apologize! My camera is being fixed so I can’t take fabulous pictures! :( Boohoo! So, to hold yall over I wanted to share this amazing lemon cookie recipe that I found and made this week for two of my friend’s birthdays! Enjoy and I hope to have the camera fixed by Monday so please come back for the fiesta in your mouth! Love to all and thanks for being patient! Blessings!
Ingredients
Cookie:
1 package lemon supreme cake mix
1/3 cup oil
2 eggs
¼ cup sugar
Icing:
1 cup powdered sugar
4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (approx. one lemon)
Directions
• Preheat oven to 375ยบ
• In large bowl, combine cake mix, oil, and eggs; stir with spoon until thoroughly moistened
• Shape dough into 1” balls; lace 2” apart on ungreased cookie sheet
• Bake for 5-7 minutes or until edges are light, golden brown; cool 1 minute then remove from cookie sheet
• In another small bowl, combine powdered sugar and lemon juice until you obtain a smooth icing consistency; using a teaspoon, drizzle icing over cookies and sprinkle with powdered before the icing sets (if desired)
Tips:
• Freshly squeezed lemons work best
• Icing consistency can be adjusted using either more lemon juice or more confectioner sugar; allow icing to completely set before storing cookies
• Placing wax paper under the cooling racks before icing cookies can make clean-up much easier
Loved,loved,loved them.lemon heaven.Easy I used a large melon baller to get the perfect size.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you do with the quarter cup of sugar? I made these and then noticed it was in the ingredients and I had not used it. They turned out very nice. I think I need to play around with the icing as even though I squeezed a lemon and used fresh lemon juice it still had a somewhat fake taste, I am sure it is due to the powdered sugar. I might try different brands or sifting or maybe cutting it with some real sugar? If you have some thoughts I would love them.
