Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter, cream cheese, egg, and lemon extract with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Add the lemon cake mix and mix until well incorporated.
  • Cover the cookie dough in the bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • While the dough is chilling, preheat the oven to 350F.
  • Roll the dough into 1-inch balls, roll each in the powdered sugar, then place on cookie sheets greased with non-stick cooking spray. Leave at least 2 inches of space between each cookie.
  • Bake the cookies at 350F for 12-13 minutes until set. Cool the cookies on the baking sheets for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Dust with additional powdered sugar if desired.
