Ingredients
- 1 17.5 oz Package Sugar Cookie Mix Link is for Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix which is similar. I used Best Choice which can be purchased at Price Cutter or Piggly Wiggly stores.
- 1 Large Egg
- 1 Stick Butter Softened, not melted
- 1 Zest of one lemon Grate peel from entire lemon.
- ½ Cup Confectioners Sugar
Instructions
- Line cookie sheet(s) with parchment paper and preheat oven to package directions. Mix cookie mix, softened (not melted butter) and egg together. Mixture will be hard to stir. Use you hands if necessary.Grate the zest of one whole lemon into the mixture. Form a ball and place on waxed paper and knead a bit until smooth.Pinch off small pieces and roll into 3/4" balls. Place a couple of inches apart on a cookie sheet.Bake at 350° for 7-11 minutes. Bake until done, but not really browned. Ovens vary. Mine baked at about 300 for 7 minutes and cookies came out soft. For crispier cookie bake a bit longer but watch closely.Allow cookies to cool. Roll or dust in confectioners sugar once or twice depending on how heavy you want the coating.Store in a covered container.
