Lemon Crisps

This month I had made some Valentine sugar cookies and Cherry Almond cupcakes early in the month since I was going to be working crazy hours during the week of Valentine's Day.

Well, they have pretty much all been consumed so I made up some quick and easy lemon cookies this morning.

I have been making this recipe for years now. It came from my Cake Mix Magic book and I have made variations of this recipe a few times, along with the lemon flavour. 

Lemon Cookies

Lemon Crisps

1 box lemon cake mix

1 egg
1/2 cup butter/margarine, melted
1 tsp lemon juice
Granulated sugar
 
Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix cake mix, egg, melted butter and lemon juice in large bowl. Mix with wooden spoon until well blended.

Shape dough into 1 inch balls and roll in granulated sugar. Place on greased baking sheets and press flat with bottom of a glass dipped in sugar. 

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges. Cool 1 minute on baking sheets or until firm, then transfer cookies to wire racks and cool completely.  

These cookies are addictive and everyone I have made them for asks for the recipe. They are chewy on the inside and the outside has a nice crunch. If you're looking to whip up some cookies and have limited ingredients on hand, these cookies are perfect!
