How To Make Lemon Cake Mix Cookies

First set the oven to preheat at 350 degrees. Line two baking sheet with parchment paper so the cookie batter doesn’t stick to them.

In a mixing bowl, add two eggs and whisk them up. Pour in the vegetable oil and mix in with a fork. Finally, add the lemon cake mix and combine all ingredients using fork or whisk.

Using scoops of about 1/4 cup of batter, lay out 10 cookie dough balls onto baking sheets.

Bake for 15 minutes, then allow them to cool down completely before serving.

Cooking Tips

• Use a fork or whisk to combine ingredients in mixing bowl
• Be sure to leave enough room between cookie dough balls as the batter tends to spread as they bake
• Let the cookies cool completely after baking, so they maintain their shape

Can I Add Lemon Juice To Store Bought Cake Mix?

Yes! The tartness of the juice will balance out the sweetness of the cake mix and bring out a punch of puckery lemon flavor.

How Can You Make a Store Bought Cake Mix More Moist?

By adding more eggs than the box instructions suggests. Usually, you add 2 eggs to a boxed cake mix, but if you add 3, the cake will more moist and still bake up as usual.
