Ingredients

  • 1 15.25 oz. box lemon cake mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • ⅓ C vegetable oil
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • ½ C confectioner's sugar, for rolling

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.  Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.  Set aside.
  • Using a hand or stand mixer, mix all ingredients except powdered sugar in a medium bowl on low just until ingredients are well incorporated.  Don't over mix.
  • Put powdered sugar in a small plate or shallow dish.  Drop dough by rounded spoonfuls into the sugar.  Coat and roll dough into 1" balls.  Place on lined baking sheets.
  • Bake for 6-9 minutes or until bottoms are only slightly browned.  Do not let bottoms get over browned or cookies won't be light and fluffy.
