Tasty Tuesday - Lemonade Cookies



This has to be one of the easiest recipes for cookies that I have ever come across.  They take no time to make and are so yummy that they won't last very long!

Ingredients:

1 - Box of Lemon Cake Mix
1 - Egg
1 - 8 oz. Cream Cheese (Room Temperature)
1/4 cup Butter (Room Temperature)
1 tsp. vanilla
Powdered Sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cream the butter, egg, vanilla and cream cheese together.  Slowly mix in the cake mix.  Once the dough forms, refrigerate for 1-2 hours or freeze for 45 mins.  This is so that you are able to roll the dough into balls easily. Once the dough sets, roll into balls and then into powdered sugar.  Place on parchment paper or silicone baking sheets for easy removal later.  Otherwise just place them on a greased baking sheet.

Bake for 10-13 mins.  Once cooled sprinkle with more powdered sugar.

All In All:  These cookies are so easy to make.  I have played around with other flavored cake mixes too like red velvet, white cake mix and added almond flavoring and you can even use french vanilla cake mix and add chocolate chips for a quick chocolate chip cookie mix.  They were all so yummy!
