Ingredients
- 1 box lemon cake mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and helps your cookies bake evenly. It also saves you from scrubbing cookie goo later—win-win!
- In a large mixing bowl, crack in the eggs and pour in the vegetable oil. Whisk these two together until fully combined. Then add in the lemon cake mix and stir until a soft dough forms. It’ll be a bit sticky—totally normal.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized balls of dough and roll them in your palms. Place them about 2 inches apart on your prepared baking sheet. If you like a crinkle look, roll the dough balls in powdered sugar before baking.
- Bake for 9–11 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Don’t overbake—they’ll continue to cook a little on the tray. Let them rest for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
