LEMON CRINKLE COOKIES



Lemon Crinkle Cookies image

If you like lemon and you like cookies, this recipe is for you! I discovered it on Pinterest and it won the "Top Cookie Award" on an LDS food blog. I've been baking and making cookies for 40 years and haven't stumbled upon a better cookie than this one. It's very refreshing and light, but the texture is what really makes this cookie stand out. Crunchy on the outside and just the right chewy softness on the inside. Wonderful!

I got this recipe off of a friend's posting on my face book. I'm not a big cookie eater, but this really appealed to me and I have made it two times now! Everyone I have let taste them, loves them! And it is sooo easy! Yummy!!

Provided by Denise Fuller

Categories     Cookies

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 box lemon cake (any kind)
1 pkg 8 oz cool whip
1 slightly beaten egg
1/2 c powdered sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the first three ingredients in large bowl. Batter will be sticky and thick. I have also squeezed a wedge of lemon or two into this for more lemony flavor.
  • 2. Form dough and take by teaspoonfuls and roll in powdered sugar. Place on cookie sheet. (I sprayed with oil, but recipe didn't call for it) Leave a good space between them, they really grow when they are baked!
  • 3. Bake in 350 degree oven till edges get golden. Recipe she gave said 8-10 minutes but I thought it needed to bake longer than that. Try about 15 minutes.
  • 4. Let rest for about a minute in the pan, then put on wire rack to cool. Enjoy!

Time 27m

Yield 3 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup shortening
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon grated fresh lemon rind
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Cream shortening and brown sugar until fluffy; add egg and lemon rind, beating well.
  • Combine flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, ginger, and salt; stir into creamed mixture.
  • Roll dough into 1-inch balls; roll each in sugar.
  • Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.

Tips:

  • For the best results, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This will help to create a soft and chewy cookie.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  • Roll the dough balls in powdered sugar before baking. This will give the cookies a crinkly texture and a sweet, citrusy flavor.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown. Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before storing them in an airtight container. This will help to keep them fresh and prevent them from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Lemon crinkle cookies are a classic treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With their sweet and tangy flavor, soft and chewy texture, and crinkly exterior, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
