Ingredients
For lemon cake mix cookies
- 1 box lemon cake mix you can use other cake mix flavors
- 2 eggs
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
For lemon glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 Tablespoons lemon juice (fresh squeezed lemon juice or purchased lemon juice)
- Parchment paper (optional) This is optional but I always use it.
Instructions
- Go ahead and preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Into the large mixing bowl, pour the lemon cake mix, eggs, and oil. Mix till well blended.
- Place parchment paper on the cookie sheet.
- Make the dough into 1 inch balls by hand or using a cookie scoop. Place on the cookie sheet about 1.5 inches apart
- Bake for about 10 minutes. The edges of the cookies will just begin to brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the pan for a few minutes, then carefully move them to a cooling rack.
- While the cookies cool, make the glaze. Place the powdered sugar in the small mixing bowl. Add about 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice and stir. Continue to add lemon juice until the glaze drips off the spoon easily.
- Put the cooling rack on top of a cookie sheet with sides to catch the extra glaze that will run off.
- When the cookies are completely cooled, drizzle about 1 Tablespoon of glaze over each cookie. Let the cookies sit on the rack until the glaze is set.
