Ingredients
- 1 box lemon cake mix
- 8 oz Cool Whip (2 1/2 cups)
- 1 egg
- ½ cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Mix the dough: In a large bowl, combine the lemon cake mix, thawed Cool Whip, and egg. Mix with a wooden spoon or electric mixer on low speed until just combined. The dough will be sticky - that's normal!
- Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. This step is important for the cookies to hold their shape.
- Prepare for baking: Preheat your oven to 350 °F (175°C). Grease the baking sheets or line them with parchment paper. Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl.
- Shape the cookies: Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop portions of dough into the powdered sugar and gently roll until completely covered. Place on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set but still soft. Don’t overbake – they should still look slightly underdone.
- Cool: Let cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before removing. They’ll be very soft when hot but will firm up as they cool.
Notes
Notes:
- Make sure Cool Whip is completely thawed but not warm
- Don’t skip the chilling time – it’s essential for the right texture
- Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days
- These freeze beautifully for up to 6 months
