Easy Lemon Drop Cookies

As most of you already know, I absolutely love using lemons when I cook and I love to eat anything that has a lemon flavor!  I also try to cook every night and make everything homemade! However, like many people, I am often in a rush and need to whip something up quickly.  Therefore, these semi-homemade lemon drop cookies are perfect for when you are in a rush and just want a quick and simple dessert!

Made using a lemon cake mix, these cookies always come out perfectly moist and fluffy.  I especially love making these cookies in the spring and summer months because of their lightness and fresh flavor!

Lemon Drop Cookies

Ingredients:

-1 box Duncan Heinz lemon cake mix

-1/2 cup flour

-3/4 cup vegetable oil

-2 eggs

-Confectioner's sugar for sprinkling 

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and prepare a baking sheet with butter and flour or parchment paper.  If you have airbake pans then you do not need to do anything.  

Mix the cake mix, flour, oil, and eggs all together in a bowl.  Once the ingredients are combined, use a cookie scoop or a spoon to form a ball of dough into about the size of a teaspoon.  Place the ball onto your prepared baking sheet and continue with the rest of the dough. 

Once all of the balls of dough are placed onto the cookie sheet, place the sheet into the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes (or until the edges just start to brown). 

Remove from the oven when done and place on a cooling rack.  Using a sifter, sift a little confectioner's sugar over the tops of the cookies and serve.  Enjoy! 

Now, on another note, I know it has been awhile since I have posted anything.  It has been quite hectic lately, but I just found out that I was accepted into a Master's program and will be getting my tuition paid for in full!!! I am so excited!!! I will be getting more busy so my posts may be limited, but I will try to post as often as possible.  

I also want to send out a huge thank you to Elise at Elise's Kkitchen for awarding me with several awards! I know it has taken me some time to get back to her, but I am honored that she thought of me when passing along these awards.  Elise has an amazing blog with beautiful photos and recipes, so be sure to check it out!

Now, not only will I be passing these awards along, but I also have to share 7 fun facts about myself.  I know I have shared some before in the past, so it is going to be a little more difficult this time around, but here it goes...

1.) I skipped out on work to watch the Royal Wedding! 

2.) I am going to be attempting the Dukan Diet within the next few weeks and am stressing about what I will be eating... 

3.) I got scissors stuck in my braces when I was 13.  Quite embarrassing. 

4.) I would love to own or work for a winery... mainly so I can sample :)

5.) I think I'm becoming a "yogi"

6.) I cry whenever I see the fancy feast commercial with the cute, fluffy, white cat in it and the guy proposes... if you haven't seen it, it's adorable! 

7.) I've recently become addicted to HGTV

The people that I am going to pass these awards onto are a mix of blogs that I have been following and blogs that I have recently discovered and enjoy!
