Zesty Lemon Cake Mix Cookies
Ingredients
1 box Lemon Pillsbury Cake Mix
1 3.4 oz box INSTANT Lemon Jello Pudding
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
Icing:
Powdered sugar
milk
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lemon cake mix and the instant lemon Jello pudding mix. Stir until well combined.
Add in the vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until all the ingredients are fully incorporated and a dough forms. The dough may appear slightly sticky.
Shape the dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently press down on each cookie ball with the back of a spoon to flatten it slightly.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Icing:
In a small bowl, start with 1 cup of powdered sugar. Gradually add milk, one tablespoon at a time, while stirring, until you achieve your desired consistency. The icing should be thick yet pourable.
Drizzle the icing over the cooled cookies using a spoon or a piping bag. Allow the icing to set before serving.
Enjoy these delightful Zesty Lemon Cake Mix Cookies as a burst of citrus goodness in every bite!
