Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper
Ingredients
For the Cookies
- 1 box lemon cake mix
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar for rolling
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the lemon cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Mix until the dough is smooth and all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Step 3: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.
- Step 4: Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the cookies are set.
- Step 5: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Ensure your lemon cake mix is fresh for the best flavor and texture in your cookies. For an even crinkle effect, roll the dough balls generously in powdered sugar. Keep an eye on the cookies and remove them from the oven as soon as the edges start to turn golden to maintain their soft and chewy texture.
