How to make easy lemon cookies with cake mix
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, add the lemon cake mix, oil, and two eggs.
Mix until combined. This recipe is super easy, so it is a great one for kids to help with.
Scoop by rounded tablespoonful onto a parchment covered cookie sheet. You should be able to fit 12 cookies onto a standard sized cookie sheet.
Bake the lemon crinkle cookies with cake mix for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees. Don't you just love how the tops get all crinkly?
After you remove the 3 ingredient lemon cookies from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes and then move them to a baking rackto cool.
You can enjoy these lemon crinkle cookies with cake mix as is, or you can add a dusting of powdered sugar on top. It just makes them look so pretty!
You can also serve these topped with frosting. We used premade vanilla frosting and it was a delicious addition to these cookies made with cake mix. We couldn't decide the best way to enjoy these, so we left some plain, frosted some, and sprinkled powdered sugar on the others. You can't go wrong either way!
