EASY CAKE MIX COOKIES- PERFECT LEMON COOKIE



Easy Cake Mix Cookies- Perfect Lemon Cookie image

I frequently make these cookies for work pitch-ins & family get-togethers. They are always a big hit! I was given the basic recipe several years ago by a lady who showed up at my garage sale-and she wrote it down during our conversation about baking. I have perfected different varieties over the years. Please see my other recipes for how to make the following versions of this cookie: chocolate-chocolate chip, chocolate chip, & sugar cookies. This is a really versatile recipe base-experiment!!

Provided by KitchenAndCraftAdve

Categories     Dessert

Time 13m

Yield 24-36 cookies, 24-36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (18 ounce) box lemon supreme cake mix
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Stir ingredients in medium mixing bowl until blended (best to do right before you are ready to bake them- they flatten out more if you let the batter set).
  • Spoon onto 2 un-greased cookie sheets (allow some space in between, they spread...a melon baller works great for this step).
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes (depends on which cake mix you use & the oven -- I start looking at them through the glass around 6.5 minutes -- they will get a dull/cracked appearance on top when done).
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the pan, or wait 1-2 minutes before moving to cooling racks. Cookies will be soft/chewy.
  • While lemon cookies are cooling, mix together the powdered sugar & lemon juice in a small bowl, add more powdered sugar for a stiffer glaze. Lightly brush or drizzle glaze onto warm cookies on the cooling rack.

EASY LEMON CAKE PUDDING...



Easy Lemon Cake Pudding... image

This was the first custard I have ever tried to make. Came out good. Was so good I never got to try it lol...

Provided by Vanessa "Nikita" Milare

Categories     Cakes

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 c sugar
1/4 c cake flour
1/8 tsp salt
3 eggs, separated
1 1/2 c milk, scalded
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
5 Tbsp lemon juice, fresh
2 tsp lemon rind, grated

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 325F. Lightly grease & flour custard cups.
  • 2. Sift together dry ingredients in large bowl.
  • 3. Beat egg whites with the sugar until sift peaks & glossy.
  • 4. Combine wet ingredients to flour mixture. Fold in egg whites. Make sure not to over fold.
  • 5. Pour into custard cups, set in pan of hot water & bake for 45 mins.
  • 6. Let cool.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons: Fresh lemons provide the best flavor for this cake. If you only have bottled lemon juice, use twice the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Zest the lemons before juicing them: This will help release the fragrant oils from the lemon peel, which will give your cake a more intense lemon flavor.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help incorporate air into the batter, which will make your cake lighter and more tender.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
  • Test the cake for doneness with a toothpick or skewer: When inserted into the center of the cake, it should come out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This easy lemon cake is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist crumb, tangy lemon flavor, and sweet glaze, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious dessert, give this lemon cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
