Time 24m

Yield 3-4 dozen, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

18 ounces lemon cake mix with pudding
1 cup crisp rice cereal
1/2 cup margarine, melted
1 egg, slightly beaten

Steps:

  • Combine cake mix, margarine, and egg; blend well. Fold in cereal.
  • Form 1-inch balls, pressing firmly onto ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Bake at 350 for 9-12 minutes, or until golden brown around edges.
  • Cool 1 minute. Remove from cookie sheet.

Tips:

  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Use fresh lemon zest: This will give the cookies the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use 1 teaspoon of bottled lemon juice instead.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature: The cookies will keep for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These lemon cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a formal party. With their bright citrus flavor and crispy texture, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these lemon cookies a try.
