Lemon Snowflakes

ms_bold's Note:

This is an easy recipe that produces a tart and soft cookie. I believe that it was clipped from a Taste of Home magazine several years ago.

• Cook Time: 12 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 60 snowfla ...

• 1 (18 ounce) package lemon cake mix with pudding

Directions:

1. In a mixing bowl, combine cake mix, whipped topping and egg.
2. Beat with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended.
3. Batter will be VERY sticky -- and I can't even begin to tell you how sticky it is. :).
4. Drop by teaspoonfuls into confectioner's sugar; roll lightly to coat.
5. Place on ungreased cookie sheets.
6. Bake at 350F for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned on edges.

YUMMMMM!!!! I loved the fact that these cookies not only start w/a cake mix but only require 3 other ingrdients. They are very pretty & taste great. I am going to put these in my christmas cookie trays.

I rarely use any kind of prepared mix when I'm baking but these intrigued me with the unique combination of ingredients. While they aren't as lemony as some of the "from scratch" recipes I've tried, they are very good and fun to make. If you use two spoons to drop the extremely sticky batter in the powdered sugar, you really don't get any on you at all. I had trouble with my first batch sticking to the cookie sheets, so I sprayed them before the next batch. I especially liked how soft the cookies were and how pretty.
